I would love to get any help you can provide in digging/preparing plants for sale. If you too 
have plants in your garden that you are digging up and don't know what to do with please 
consider donating them to this sale. 

COME SPREAD COMPOST THIS SATURDAY MORNING around 9am - bring a shovel/bucket and some gardening energy - help us get our gardens in good shape!

Spring Concerts are happening in May!
  • May 20- Orchestra Concert - 7 pm  (kids at 6:30!)
  • May 27 - Chorus Concert at 7 pm (kids at 6:30!)  Plant Sale and Bake Sale - shop while waiting for the concert to start!

BAKE SALE UPDATE:  Dear parents and families of Hunt students

I would like to join Bella Nadworny in her effort to run a small scale fundraiser for the Hunt PTO on the day of our Chorus concert. While Bella is running a lighter version of the popular Plant sale, I would like to offer refreshments to the concert goers.

I am looking for 2-3 volunteers to help me with the setup and sales, as well as many others to contribute cookies, brownies, cupcakes, etc. for the event.

Please, let me know if you can help in any way at Dagmar.zentrichova@gmail.com
I can pick your donations at your house or you can drop them off at 6pm-6:30 on the day of the concert. (or respond to the Hunt PTO email to volunteer or bake)

Please support this small fundraiser. Our PTO funds are dwindling due to lack of fundraising volunteers. The funds are used to finance a variety of school and student related activities, as Harvest dinner, Iron chef, 8th grade field trip, enrichment supplies for classrooms, and others.

Thank you, Dasha Zentrichova

Remember to come out and cheer on the HUNT marathon relay team running on Sunday, May 24th!
 
GO, GO, GO!
