EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE FIFTH GRADE PICNIC IS RIGHT HERE!!
PLEASE READ!!
The 5th Grade students and staff will be celebrating with a WHOLE DAY of fun on Tuesday, June 11th (rain date June 14th) following the morning Bridge Ceremony! There will be games, a visit from a firetruck, a raffle, a photo booth, face-paint, crafts, music and food!
CEREMONY & PARKING
The ceremony will begin around 9:45am on the Monocacy Middle School basketball court blacktops. Please do not park in the parking lots on MOES campus. There is parking available at the church across from the school on Hayward. A flyer was sent home regarding limited handicapped parking spaces at the Middle School. You must have a valid parking pass (issued from MoES) in order to use these spaces.
FOOD DONATIONS
Lunch will be provided for the students for the day of the Picnic by the PTA. Your student may also bring their packed lunch instead. In order to make the party a success, we need help with donations! To make it easy, we're asking for the same donation from each student per classroom and the snacks will be divided the day of the celebration. We are requesting the following donations:
Ms. Greene: 1 bag/bunch of whole apples, mandarins, bananas or grapes (pre-washed)
Ms. Neverosky: pre-packaged individual servings of chips or pretzel
Ms. Wise: pre-packaged individual servings of granola bars (NUT FREE)
Ms. Richmond: pre-packaged individual servings of cookies (NUT FREE)
Ms. Abbinanti: 1 bag of baby carrots, celery sticks or sliced cucumbers (pre-washed)
**Please note we would like to collect the donations ahead of time to make sure we have enough prior to the day of the celebration.
You may start sending in your items the week before the party (fresh fruit or veggie donations can come the day before (June 10th)
or the morning of).
REMINDERS
Reminder for all 5th Grade students participating in the 5th Grade Picnic: Please remember to bring your own sunscreen (we cannot provide or apply), towel and change of comfy clothes (bring your 5th grade T-shirt!) for after the Bridge Ceremony. We will be getting wet! :)
Sorry for the inconvenience, but bathing suits are not permitted!
RAFFLE TICKETS
We will have several prizes, gift cards and items up for raffle during the Picnic. Each student that has earned 250 Picnic Points can participate in the 5th Grade Picnic and will each receive 1 raffle ticket automatically. Over the last month, students have had the option to earn additional Picnic Points for good behavior, which can then be turned in for extra raffle tickets. Students will receive their earned raffle tickets the morning of the Picnic.
