Benny Bengal's News Brief
Boggess Elementary PTA || Volume 22, Issue 16
Benny Passes the Mic to Our PTA President...
Thanks to everyone who came out to the awesome Bike Rodeo! If you enjoy these family events throughout the year, there are two easy ways you can help raise more funds for PTA:
Jersey Mike's Murphy is providing a FREE regular size sub with a minimum $2.00 donation, and 100% of the donations go to Boggess PTA. Stop by this Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday to support us while eating a yummy sub. Make sure you bring the coupon card that came home in your student's folder.
And our Color Crazy Fun Run is coming up in April! Register your student today and start getting donations from family and friends. Can't wait to see our runners have a blast at this event!
Thanks,
Sylvia Roy
