Simply write your name and bidding number on the sheet next to the amount that the item is going for. When the bidding is over for that item, whoever is the last on the list will win that item. There will be a paying table where you will pay and pick up the item you won.
UPCOMING PTO VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Come Join the Tavan Dad's Club
The Tavan Dad's Club has
been an integral part of Tavan for over 15 years. The Dad's Club is made up of
students' family members (mostly dads and a few grandpas) that are committed to
being involved in the school community. The members provide input and their own
flavor to each and every event which results in the three events evolving each
and every year.
The Dad's club
is responsible for three events during the year:
1. Haunted House at
Halloween HiJinx (October). The dads put together an elaborate and intricate
haunted house that is both thrilling and compelling for our kids.
2. Sweetheart Dance:
(February - Saturday before Valentine's day). This dance is a cherished opportunity
for the young women of Tavan to bring their dad, uncle, grandfather or close
family friend to the school for a night of dancing, chocolate fountains and
prizes.
3. Movie Night & Campout (April). On the cool afternoon of a Saturday in April we play games, jump in a bounce house and BBQ food while families get to know each other. At sunset we project a family movie on a large screen outside for all to enjoy. Many families choose to camp out on the field and eat a pancake breakfast the next morning.
If you are interested in joining or helping at an event, please email dadsclub@tavanpto.com or call John Halverson @602-568-5711
