Fall Reminders

Happy October! Fall is such a fun time of the year, and we have a lot going on this month!
Hopefully a little something for everyone- things will be coming home for you to pick and choose from so let us know which are your easiest/favorites.

Just a reminder that Scrip Orders are due Friday, Oct. 4th (The full list of cards if available at www.glscrip.com). Also, don't forget if you are on your way to the grocery store, to dinner, the bookstore or the movies, Marsha has many cards available for immediate purchase in the office.

Are some of your magazine subscriptions from last year's magazine sale about to expire? Are you trying to come up with some great holiday gifts that will actually get used?
Then visit our online store - it's always open. The link is under our "Shop" tab, or go here:
www.gaschoolstore.com   -   School Code:   #1333731

Getting ready to do a fall clean up? Back by popular demand, the hugely successful Arc "Fill A Truck" drive will be held in our parking lot beginning Oct. 23. More times and dates for drop off to come. Drop off your unwanted, gently worn/used clothing, household items, baby gear, furniture etc. If we fill the truck, the ARC will donate $1000 to our school- which goes into our operating fund!

And finally, some BIG news.  We are so excited to announce that this year- STCS will be throwing a Fall Festival!
Several of you have suggested we mix things up a bit and move Mardi Gras to a fall harvest fest.
Well, this year we are going to take the plunge! We have some excitement and great ideas coming in already. The fest will be in mid November- so if you'd like to earn some volunteer hours, be creative and have some fun, join us in the planning! Just let one of your ACE officers know, come to the next ACE meeting on Oct. 8th, or leave your number with Marsha. Its going to be a lot of fun!

Blessing to All!
