We also let other town clubs add flyers so new people can get involved with our community.

We include a brochure with:
1. Board members' names, positions and phone # as well as commitee chair names (and open positions if any).
2. Important dates (fundraisers, conferences, pta meetings, etc.)

We also provide each child with a folder and an assignment pad with the school name and logo.
Forms for membership & activewear also go into the packet.
