IRC FUN FAIR - RAIN OR SHINE!



YAHOOOO!  FUN FAIR is this SATURDAY MAY 25 from 11-3!
This is a rain or shine event.  Right now the weather does not look promising so let’s collectively hope for sunshine.  If the rain comes, we will host a slightly-modified-but-still-SUPER-FUN event indoors!  
VOLUNTEERS
We still need volunteers to make Fun Fair possible.  Lots of them.  If you can help, please email Sarah at riemerse@gmail.com today!   

SILENT AUCTION
The Silent Auction IS LIVE!  Go to https://www.32auctions.com/IRC to view the many fantastic items that were donated!  Thank you to everyone who contributed! 

There will be a display of auction items at the Fun Fair. People will be able to bid and pay for items with cash or cheque, as always, if that is preferred.  Otherwise, all sales can be cashless through the auction website.

BAKE SALE
Your home baked or store bought goods are appreciated! A gentle reminder that all goods should be peanut and tree nut free.  Goods may be brought to the gym on the morning of Fun Fair any time after 9:00 am.  If you can bake or donate some treats, please contact Melissa at melissa.denomme@gmail.com
FUNDRAISER: STREET CHALLENGE
The Street Challenge to raise money for the Fun Fair attractions is going strong! This ensures all money raised at Fun Fair can be pure profit for Parent Council initiatives! 
Congrats on the following street efforts:

Indian Road Cres—Raised $600!
Humberside—Raised $200!
Kenneth—Has an event planned in June – email Zaineb for details jzainab@hotmail.com
Jerome- Raised $320!

Streets that raise money (with yard sales, lemonade stands, BBQs etc) can proudly post a sign by a Fun Fair attraction that reads, "This dunk tank/bouncy castle/obstacle course brought to you by the families of ___ street!" or will be recognized in future emails and on the IRC Blog.  If any other streets want to get involved please email Liann at lbobechko@gmail.com.  
See you on Saturday!
