Online Auction

The Online Auction is now closed!

 

A HUGE thank you goes out to all the Bobcat Families who bid in the auction last week! With winning bids totaling over $9000.00, the money raised in this year’s online auction is going to surpass our goal! We hope you won the items you really wanted, but even if you didn’t, thank you for helping us raise much-needed funds for our Bobcats.

 

A big thank you also goes out to everyone who assisted with the auction, collected donations, donated items, and bid on items. This was an awesome example of a team/community effort. Now all that’s left is for you to pick up the items you purchased!

 

AUCTION ITEM PICKUP FRIDAY, April 20th, 1:00-6:00pm in ROOM 600 

 

You can pay your invoice online or pay with cash or check at pickup. If you are unable to pick up your items during that time, please contact Ellen Myers at onlineauction@beverlypta.com

Earth Month/Day 

Be a part of diverting thousands of pounds of shoes and clothing from local landfills by placing in your school’s bin your gently used shoes, clothing, purses, belts, wallets, hats, caps, backpacks, hard toys, stuffed animals and pots and pans. For every pound collected from you, our PTA receives $0.15 per pound. The benefit to you? Neater closets, drawers, toy boxes, and kitchens, and the knowledge that less textile waste will end up in our landfills.

 

If we can collect 2,500 lbs. or more during Earth Month, World Wear Project will give our school an extra $100. Help out our school by getting your family involved in cleaning out your closets today.
