Hi!

I believe that the benefit Endolyne Joe’s for Pathfinder is tomorrow night (Wednesday) while Gatewood’s is tonight (Tuesday).

Does everyone (especially those without kids in school) realize and understand the many ways that local schools can be supported? Many don’t even require but a small change in shopping habits for example. Go to eScrips.com, sign up a local school to receive a percentage of your purchases that you make at Safeway. This costs YOU nothing! There are over 1000 vendors (yes, one thousand!) you can patronize that contribute up to 4 or 5% of your purchase back to a school program (this includes AMAZON.com)
Attend a spaghetti feed (or other dinner promotion) for a direct donation and get a meal, meet your local community neighbors, and check out the learning environment. You can help and it may not even affect your wallet any differently. And you can be making a difference for your local schools of your choosing!

Pathfinder will soon be selling their homemade wreaths to support outdoor ed. Thanks for all of West Seattle’s support of schools! It makes a huge difference.

thanks, Eric, we’re planning to mention the wreaths tomorrow when previewing Night 2 of West Seattle school fundraising at Endolyne Joe’s … will be looking for them during Hometown Holidays too … TR
