We invite the principals of 18 local schools to send six of their first-year teachers to be treated to lunch, free classroom supplies, and amazing raffle giveaways. Each school is sponsored by a local business that donates additional supplies and goodies for teachers. In past years, we’ve had over 150 attendees, 20-25 sponsors/volunteers who all come together to make this a great event. Let us know if you’d like to donate items or sponsor a table!
