Tue, Jan 20 9:39am


Consider this your friendly warning: you’re going to be hearing about Spring Fling a lot over the next 44 days, so you might as well stop fighting it and just… lean in. Buy the ticket. Host the party. Donate the thing. 🌸

Whittier PTA’s Spring Fling is happening March 7, 2026 | 6–10pm at Stone Way Auto, and we’re aiming to raise $90,000 to keep essential Whittier staff and services thriving. This year’s theme? We're making good things grow. So turnip the beet—it's thyme to party.

Here’s what’s taking root:

- Tickets: $55 each (includes food + 2 drink tickets)
- Entertainment: Music, dancing, Golden Ticket raffle, and more
- Food & Drinks: Three stations of heavy appetizers alongside two custom cocktails and mocktails, wine, and beer
- Auction: Class-made art, themed buckets, unhinged auction packages with experiences and items from local businesses, and tickets to staff- and community-hosted events
 - Dress Code: Anything garden-festive! From coveralls and clogs to floral dresses—whatever makes you feel ready to bloom and celebrate.

🌼 BUY TICKETS
Tickets are $55 and include 2 drinks + all the food you can roam for. Bonus: we’re already 30% of the way to our ticket goal, so don’t leaf us hanging—grab yours now.

🌿 HOST A PARTY (YES, YOU)
Hosted Parties are where the magic really grows. You plant the idea, choose the vibe (adult, kid, or family), decide the size and location, cover the hosting costs, and 100% of ticket sales go directly to Whittier.
Past favorites include pie + beverage pairings, grade-level happy hours, backyard movie nights, gardening lessons, and more.
Need help cultivating an idea? We’ve got fertilizer (aka support). Submit yours before 2/13!

🌻 DONATE SILENT AUCTION ITEMS
Donations close 1/30, so this is your last chance to sow items, experiences, vacation rentals, or event tickets into the mix.

We’re also growing some delightfully unhinged Whittier merch—if you have access to small quantities (2–4) of blank t-shirts, hats, tote bags, steins, fanny packs, or honestly… anything, we will absolutely Wildcat it up.

✨ Bottom line: you’re going to hear about Spring Fling for the next 44 days anyway, so you might as well get ahead of it. Buy the ticket. Submit the party. Donate the goods. Let’s make this fundraiser bloom. Learn more here >>
