Irving’s Tasty Dog Challenge 2014 is TODAY!!!! until 8:30 pm!!!
Today is our day! Hope to see you at The Tasty Dog anytime between 11am and 8:30pm. When you mention “Irving” they will donate 15% of food sales to our school. Raffle tickets are being sold on site also.
In terms of parking – great news…The OP Police Dept. WILL NOT BE TICKETING those cars parked ON EUCLID (the East side street) during the hours of 5PM – 8PM on THE NIGHTS OF THE TASTY DOG CHALLENGE!! (In case you need to park there)
See you tonight!

This event raises money for the PTO in two ways:

  1.                 Tasty Dog donates 15% of every sale that day when you say you are with Irving School. Plus, the school that raises the most money also gets additional $$$ from cash prize sponsors.

2.                 Raffle Tickets. For $1 you can have the chance to earn some great prizes.

Each $1 ticket gives you a chance to win one of many amazing prizes such as Chicago Bears, Wolves, Cubs and Fire tickets, School of Rock summer camp session, A2 night stay at a resort in Lake Geneva, Tennis and Fitness Center gift certificates, and much, much more!

 See the full flyer for prizes.

Irving Tasty Dog Raffle Tickets at Irving Book Fair Today

Please consider signing up for a one-hour time slot to sell tickets at Tasty Dog next Wednesday, April 30th. Pair up with your kid, it’s a fun job for them. I am mostly looking for people between the hours of 3:00 and 7:00, but filling all time slots would be great. 
 
Also, I’ll be popping into the book fair to sell tickets on Wednesday evening, so you can buy your raffle tickets then, and also sign up for a volunteer slot if you like. 
 
The hard copies went into the Teacher’s mailboxes late last week, hopefully you got yours! Feel free to send the form back at your convenience if you would like to buy tickets that way.  Please see the attached flyer/form for a list of the fantastic prizes. Use the link below to sign up to volunteer. 
 
Thanks!
