Needed: Hot dog grillers, game players, and servers.

Boscov’s has generously offered to host a fundraiser for us at Boscov’s on Saturday, August 28 from 11 AM to 3 PM. They will be providing hot dogs and all the fixings for us to sell. All money taken in goes to SCOLA. We are planning on also having an ice cream bar to raise even more, AND we will be selling the 25% OFF coupons for $5 (the sale will take place October 5 or 6). So we have a chance to make a great deal of money that day in just four hours!

We’ll be doing lots of other stuff, too. We need people to serve 2 hour shifts. If you are available, please contact Nancy Dressel at nancy.dressel@scolaliteracy.org or 346-6203, X12. It should be a lot of fun and a great way to generate some funds!


Do You Have Some Great Ideas?

SCOLA is always looking for new ways to raise funds for our organization. Do you know of something fun and interesting that could help SCOLA? Please contact Nancy Dressel at the office, ext. 12. Nancy is always open to innovative and fun ideas. Plans are now being made for the upcoming year. We could definitely use your help!
