Happy New Year to our Jennie Elliott family!  We are looking forward to a new year with new possibilities.
Please join us for our next School Council meeting on January 15th at 7pm in the library.

This upcoming Wednesday (December 6th) is the day you get to feast on chocolate.
If you or someone you know placed an order (with your link) you are responsible for picking up the order.
We will be in the gym from 2:00 - 5:30 so please make arrangements to have someone stop by and claim your chocolate.
With over $46,000 worth of chocolate sold, we simply don’t have the space to store unclaimed orders.
So mark your calendars and we’ll see you Wednesday!
Thanks again for your amazing support.

Hello lovely, supportive, awesome group of Jennie Elliott parents and volunteers!

Purdy’s Chocolate Sales were outstanding again this year (over $46,000) and for that, I say THANK YOU.

NOW, the fun part. I need A LOT of hands on deck to help me receive, unpack and sort all the goodies. Since we’ve been through this once, I am hoping it will go even smoother this year, but its still a heck of a lot of chocolate.

So, next Tuesday, December 5th if you can give of your time (even an hour or two), it would be SO SO SO appreciated.
I have made a request for the delivery to happen as early in the morning as possible, however, there is no guarantee on when it will arrive. Those of you from last year know, essentially I had people on “stand-by” and when the truck arrived, I sent out an email and people literally came running. It was a thing of beauty.

I will also be looking for help on Wednesday, December 6th from about 2:00 - 5:30. This is the actual Chocolate Pick-Up Day and I’ll need people to help with the delivery of chocolate.

If you can help in any capacity, please email me back and let me know which day you can be there. This year, everything will happen in the Jennie Elliott gym, so we should be a nice, contained unit.

Let me know if you have any questions and please feel free to forward this to any friends/relatives that are looking to help and create some great karma in the process.

THANKS everyone. This simply couldn’t happen without you. 

Cheers.
