From the President 

Happy March Bay Farm Families,

Mark your calendar for our next PTSA meeting Wednesday, April 2 (next week), at 6:30 PM in the MPR.  Here are the minutes from the last meeting.  We will be voting on the proposed officer slate for next year's leaders along with the proposed budget.  

There is also a family garden work day on April 5.  So come pitch in to help out in the Bay Farm gardens.  

Our largest fundraiser is coming up with the Bay Farm Gala.  I invite all of you to attend.  It is a really fun evening!  There will be the opportunity to dress up, but if you don't have "80's style" options in your closet you can just wear "a night out" clothes.  Come to the event to join the Bay Farm community in raising funds for all the amazing programs that benefit the students.  Here is what the amazing committee wants you to know:

The Bay Farm PTSA Gala & Auction this year will turn back the clock to the era of neon colors, cassette tapes, and unforgettable music—the 1980's!  Our Totally 80's themed evening is going to be a night filled with fun, laughter, and a whole lot of 80's nostalgia. Grab your tickets now before they are like, totally gone!

It's also a great night out of building community between parents, friends, and the teachers of our school. Featuring a sparkling welcome drink, photobooth, games, and fantastic auction prizes, your generosity helps support our amazing school and its students by funding essential programs, resources, and activities that enrich our children's educational experience.
The event will also proudly feature drinks from St. George Spirits, Faction Brewing, catering by High Street Station and music from By the Bay Productions. Tickets will not be available at the door, so purchase yours now before we sell out! You won't want to miss this adult only evening! 
So, grab your scrunchies, put on your best 80's outfit, and get ready to dance the night away.  (Special competition and prizes for BEST DRESSED!). Let's make it a night to remember and show our kids just how awesome the 80's, and our community, truly are!

Not interested in the live event? You can still support our school by bidding in the online auction taking place April 21st - 27th. With a wide range of fun and unique items to bid on, a raffle with a short list of larger opportunities including travel, dinners, and entertainment - this auction is open to all. Bidding in the online auction is a great way to get aunts/uncles/grandparents involved in helping raise funds for your child's school.

Finally, Bay Farm PTSA now has ShopRaise.  You can shop at almost 1000 retailers and the PTSA will receive 10% on each transaction.  It is as simple as downloading an app and can be used for everything from gift cards at retailers like Amazon and Home Depot to individual purchases.  If you are purchasing products for the PTSA be sure to use it!
