TRICK TRAY |
MANDATORY
FUNDRAISER
The Tricky Tray is one of the mandatory fundraisers for each
family. This means that each family must provide one tray with
a retail value of $100.00.
BUY-OUT OPTION
We also offer a " buy-out" option. This
gives a family the option of sending in a monetary donation of $125
in lieu of a tray. This money will be used to buy a popular
item possibly missing from the Tricky Tray donations we receive
(example: an IPod) or it is deposited to the earnings of the
event. It is preferable that each family donate a tray,
however, we realize this option may suit your needs, schedule or
particular situation.
TRAYS
The trays should come to school the week of October 6th or sooner if you have
one ready. Early is NEVER a problem! The trays should be
dropped off "ready and arranged". This means the
tray should be in a nicely decorated basket, box or creative
package, ready to be displayed wrapped in clear wrapping.
Please include with your tray, two
index cards indicating the following:
| Title of the tray: |
Relaxing on a
Peaceful Day |
| Donated by: |
Family name and
grade(s) |
| Retail value: |
$100.00 |
| Contents: |
Chai Tea,
Relaxation Books, Candles, CDs, Massage Gift Certificates |
Do not permanently attach these index
cards to your tray, as we will need them for our records. You
can attach a nicely decorated sign or card indicating the title of
your tray and who it is donated from. This is the only
information needed on the trays for the night of the event.
EARN
UNITS
The Tricky Tray is also a really
great way to earn units.
- Earn 1 unit for extra baked
item/snack
- Earn 1 unit for every two

- Earn 1 unit for every two hours

"Special" (retail value $150-$499).
- Earn 3 extra units if you donate a
