SAVE YOUR CANS & BOTTLES and BRING
THEM TO ST. MARY SCHOOL
The PTO bottle drive is in full swing and we
appreciate your continued participation. Please
bring your cans & bottles (cans & bottles only
please) that have been accumulating in your
garage and leave them at St. Mary School. We
will be more than happy to take care of them for
you.
There is a large green container marked Bottle
Drive in the back of the school, and all proceeds
will benefit Pennies for Playground - Restoration.
This year we need to replenish the mulch, and all
proceeds will be used for that. Tell your family,
friends and even neighbors and spread the news.
Our bottle drive will continue through the end of
the school year.
If you have any questions, please email PTO
Secretary, Maureen Brinker, at
[email protected]. Thank you for your
continued cooperation.
