The Scratch Cupcake all-school fundraiser has launched!
Have you been cupcaked?
Money raised from Scratch Cupcake sales will go into the Activities Fund and be used for Youth, Junior High, and High School extracurricular activities. This would include items such as youth tournaments and entry fees, Junior High equipment and uniforms, and High School equipment and team camps. These are items that would typically be funded through the sales of student activity cards.
This year we are providing all students with an activity card free of charge and plan to fund our typical expenses through proceeds of the Scratch Cupcake sales.
If you have not been contacted but would like to purchase cupcakes, please call 245-1750.
