It's almost time for the Christmas Shopping Spree!

The annual Christmas Shopping Spree is scheduled for Tuesday, December 6^th. This event runs from 9:15 am through 2:00 pm.

This is such a wonderful, safe and fun event for the children. It gives the children the opportunity to select special and reasonably priced gifts for members of the family, including their dog or cats! The children get that feel good feeling when mom, dad or other members of the family open their special gifts.

They also learn how to budget their money while they shop for gifts for the family in the safe environment of their own school. This is also more of a fun, goodwill event than it is fundraising.

Coming home will be a budget envelope that will allow you and your child to decide together how much can be spent on each gift. You may send in cash or a check made payable to St. Mary – St. Michael School HSA. Each child will have assistance with checking off their shopping list and staying within budget based on their list with volunteers throughout the day.

If you would like to volunteer for the day with helping the children shop and wrap, please contact Brenda Lagoja (Chairperson) via email Brenda.lagoja@att.net or cell phone (203)231-3262. This is a great fun way to earn volunteer hours!
