Parade Display / Other volunteer Info
The PTO is searching for volunteers to deck out their cars/trunks or tables for our “reverse” holiday car parade! Go solo or feel free to team up with friends, neighbors, classmates, teams, or anyone! Top three displays, as voted on by the parade viewers, will receive cash prizes this year! We are also looking for additional help if you do not want to do a display. If you are interested in decorating your vehicle or a table for this event or offering to help in other ways, please fill out this form.
Requirements/info for display set ups:
- The parade will be OUTSIDE, please be prepared and dress accordingly.
- You are responsible for your own set-up (beginning as early as 4:00 PM and must be complete by 5:45 PM).
- You MUST provide your own: car/table/tent, decorations, and lights (power source is also helpful but PTO will have some power available).
Santa's Elves drawing
New this year, one student from Bullock Creek Elementary and one student from Pine River Elementary will be selected for an honorary position as Santa’s elf/helper for the evening. A parent/guardian MUST be present for the entirety of the parade while the student is helping Santa. Students will be selected and notified on Monday, November 22. If your student is interested in this fun opportunity, please fill out this form by Sunday, November 21. (Drawing now closed for the 2021 parade.)
Generators / Holiday Decor Donations
- Generators – we are looking for loaned generators (smaller portable ones are great for this event). We can pick up / return if necessary!
- Holiday Lights and Decorations – we are also seeking donations of any holiday decorations (lighted is best). If you are looking to get rid of any old items you no longer use, we would happily add this to the PTO light inventory to help decorate the path!
