| Festifall is an annual fundraising
event for the Early Childhood Program. It is essentially an awesome
indoor carnival with moon bounces and a slide, games, crafts, great food,
a yummy bake sale and a spectacular silent auction. The kids also
get to dress in their Halloween costumes!!
In addition to being one of
the most fun filled evenings experienced by many, this event benefits each
and every child that attends the program. Funds from past Festifall
events have been used for major playground play pieces and renovations,
library needs, classroom furniture, school and classroom technology
(computers!), cameras and scholarships. Ten percent of funds raised
will go toward FPCE scholarships.
The event is planned and executed entirely by the
ECP Parent's Group VOLUNTEER parents. Everything from soliciting
local businesses for donations to planning the games to coordinating the
classroom items to obtaining food for the evening ... all of this is done by parent
volunteers. Without these volunteers, Festifall would not be
possible. Anyone is welcome to help, even if you are new to the
program.
If your child attends FPECP, they benefit from
the funds raised at Festifall. Please consider giving some of your
time to help with Festifall - it's never too late, planning for future
Festifall events begins the week after the current year's event is over!
