Games
4 Parent/Child games were decided on. The games will be offered the last half of the evening with a $5.00 entry fee per team. The winner of each game will receive a Branson gift package.
Whipped Cream Pie Eating Relay- Each child will stand behind their parent feeding them a whipped cream pie with a giant spoon. The team that eats the most within a certain amount of time wins.
Spaghetti Pool Hunt- Each team will search for various items hidden in a kiddie pool full of spaghetti. Each item will have a designated value. The team with most points wins.
Jell-O Hat Colander Relay- Each parent will hold a colander on their head. The child will fill the colander with Jell-O. The team that fills the colander the fullest within a certain amount of time wins.
People Scavenger Hunt- Each team will be given a sheet of paper with general characteristics of people at the Chili Supper, i.e. Find someone with a blue shirt on. The person found must sign the sheet of paper. The Parent/Child team must find as many people as possible as quick as possible. The first team to complete the hunt wins.
Silent Auction
The classes will decorate pumpkins with a theme of their choice. They will be lined up on tables in the hallway outside the cafeteria. Bidding will take place during the entire evening and end at 7:30pm.
- Preparations will begin as soon as school lets out. Volunteers will be asked to show up at 5:00pm to help set-up and stay after for clean-up.
- All Chili Supper leftovers are donated and taken to the Victory Mission by Mr. Suits.
Book Fair
Volunteers are welcome to help with the Book Fair, but not needed.
Parent/Teacher Conferences
Parent/Teacher Conferences are on October 27th and 29th at 4:00pm. Dinner is provided to the teachers on these nights. The school funds dinner for one night and the PTO funds the other. The PTO provides the desserts for both nights. Jeanne Kobler is in charge of recruiting volunteers to either make or buy a dessert for these evenings. Volunteers are asked to bring the dessert to the school the day of the meeting it will be needed for. An estimated 30-50 servings of food will be needed per night.
With no other business to be discussed the meeting was adjourned at 7:00pm.
