WILDER CARNIVAL
We are already planning our big welcome back to school event – The Wilder Carnival on Friday Sept 13th. We are looking for additional volunteers to be Booth leaders. Booth leaders will help plan and organize the booth over the summer. During the night of carnival, we ask that you help with setup with your booth and check in to ensure we have enough volunteers and everything is running smoothly. If you are interested please email
[email protected].
Does anyone have a good connection to a food truck?
Does anyone have a special talent they’d love to bring to the kids at the carnival… stilt walker, juggler, clown?
If so, please email [email protected].
We will be including information on volunteering the night of the event in the first newsletters of next school year
WILDER SUMMER PLAY DATES
Come meet new friends and connect with the old at our summer play dates! The Wilder Welcome Committee is hosting 5 play dates this summer. All five will be open to incoming kindergarten families, we’d really love families to join these that have an older child at Wilder and an incoming kindergartner. Three of our play dates will be for children in all grades. This is a great way to meet new friends and keep in touch over the summer!
