Wreath Making & Selling!  Opens November 30

Pathfinder's Giving Tree

__________________________________________________________

Wreathmaking 2009!

Wreath Workshop Opens November 30

8:30 am - 8:00 pm on most days!

It's time!  Every year members of the Pathfinder community rally from mid-November up until Winter Break to make beautiful handmade wreaths from collected greens (the photo above is an actual wreath made by an actual Pathfinder wreath-maker!).  We sell them to family members, friends, and also to others in the community through a table at the West Seattle Farmer's Market and at Tony's Market.  All proceeds support Pathfinder's legendary camping trips and other outdoor education adventures. Our goal is to raise $6,000 this year so that all students can afford to participate.  Please help us be wildly successful!  For the schedule and volunteer opportunities click here - we really need folks to help staff our table at the West Seattle Farmers Market on the three Sundays in December!

It's not too early to begin SELLING these beautiful wreaths - take orders from friends, family members, and co-workers.  We have several choices this year, all a wonderful value:

- 15" wreath (with bow) = $20

- swag (with bow) = $20

- 20" wreath (with bow) = $25

Download an order form and get it in early so we can make sure to create a beautiful and unique wreath for you and your friends. 

New this year ... all orders must be PAID IN FULL before wreaths can be picked up.  Checks or credit cards accepted. 

Contact Lynette Martin if you can help with collecting greens, making bows, making wreaths (no experience required, we can show you how!), staffing at the Farmers Market, or overall administration/organization.

Pathfinder Giving Tree - Holiday Support for Families

The holidays are coming soon, and we want all Pathfinder families to enjoy the season.  This is where you may be able to help…

Colette Swenson, our school counselor, will be organizing holiday support for families at Pathfinder this year, including our Giving Tree which is set up in the main office at Pathfinder.  The tree will be hung with tags, each printed with a gift wish from a child.  You may choose one or more tags off the tree to help.  If you cannot come in the school to choose tags, you may call the main office, 252-9710 for help getting tags.  Return the wrapped gifts by Tuesday, December 15th

If you would like to anonymously adopt a Pathfinder family for holiday giving that can be arranged.  We have many families in need, and your generosity is greatly appreciated.  You can also help by purchasing Safeway, Target, or other local store gift cards; simply drop them off at the office.  These are a HUGE help for families!

Click here to download a form for giving or for requesting support; return the forms to the office.   You may also contact Colette at 252-9744 or by email at; cswenson@seattleschools.org
