Country Fair
Thank you to all the families and business owners who have responded to the Sponsorship Match Program for the Country Fair Fundraiser. In case you haven’t heard, an anonymous donor has pledged to match all NEW Country Fair Sponsorships up to TEN thousand dollars. In just two weeks, your support has been amazing! We are currently at $3,195 in NEW sponsorships and are hoping to hit our goal of 10K. With many game booths still available, it’s not too late to participate and help the PTO reach their goal!

questions please email seescorporate@gmail.com. Thank you for supporting SEES!
