The Winter Olympics Are Here and So Is Our Biggest Fundraiser!!

We're selling Otis Spunkmeyer cookie dough, brownies, and pretzels to raise money for Parkland PTSA's mini-grants program, which provides direct support to students and teachers to enrich our educational programs. Our school will earn up to 50% profit on all items sold. Let's set a Parkland Olympic record by raising $10,000! If every student sells just two items, we'll easily reach our goal! The sale begins Wednesday, February 3, and ends Tuesday, February 16. All items are only $15 and contain 0g trans fat! In each grade, there will be Bronze ($20), Silver ($30) and Gold ($50) gift cards and a pair of tickets to Stars on Ice for the top three sellers. Students who sell at least one item will receive a free ticket to the Mystics (with purchase of one adult discounted $20 ticket). Students who sell five or more items will get to pull prizes from a "cookie jar" containing cash and tickets to Stars on Ice! Delivery is on Wednesday, March 24. Because these products are perishable, please make arrangements to pick up your order on this day. The Parkland PTSA cannot store refrigerated products. Thank you for making this our most successful fundraiser ever! If you have any questions, contact Jia-Shieu OuYang ouyangjs@gmail.com or Karen Tincknell at 301-816-2367 or ktincknell@verizon.net.
