Parking: With the snow (1st time in 12 years for the Craft Show),
comes even more parking problems since we cannot park in the snow
covered fields. ALL Adams’ moms are to park at Bethany URC. Carpooling
will also help. A shuttle bus will be running every 15 minutes from church to
school from 9:00-2:00 (or longer if needed). A special thanks to Melissa
Looyenga for helping us organize the shuttle. Please do NOT park on the
driveway that goes out to 56th – this is a fire hazard!
Craft Show bake sale: If you need foil pans for the bake sale,
please contact Ruth at 309-4008 or email [email protected]. If possible
please have your baked goods to school by 4:00 Friday, or you can take them
Saturday morning too. Thanks for all your help; we are looking forward to
another successful bake sale this year!

Fundraising
ADAMS BOOSTERS AUCTION
The Boosters would like to thank everyone for their support at
this year’s annual auction. Due to the generous giving and support, we were
able to raise over $36,000 for the school. We thank God for blessing us with
yet another profitable auction, and once again, thanks to all who gave their
time or gifts toward making this auction possible.
TRIP NEWS
The holidays are quickly approaching! There are lots of special
deals out there for all our shopwithscrip and prestopay users. Black Friday
and Cyber Monday shopping can be profitable for you and our school by
using scripnow and reloads, especially with the myscripwallet tool found on
the website. There will be 24 hours of awesome scripnow bonuses offered
on Thanksgiving Day to help you prepare for any holiday shopping you will be
doing. There are special denominations offered on all TRIP ordered,
including $5 and $10 to many favorite vendors such as Barnes & Nobel,
Panera Bread, Pizza Hut, Target and Starbucks. In order to have the TRIP
certificate you need before Thanksgiving that are not stock items, scripnow
or reloads, orders must be placed by tomorrow, November 18. Thanks for
your continued support of this ongoing fundraiser! Questions may be
directed to Melissa or Rebecca.

volunteers and what you have signed up to do or bring is coming home with
your child today. If you signed up to bring a cash donation you can bring it to
school anytime labeled “Craft Sale Lunch Donation” and place in box by the
office. If you signed up to bring a dessert, pop or bottled water please bring
it to the school kitchen by 3:00 on Friday. There will be a list on the kitchen
counter to check off your name as you bring your items in. Please remember

that we do not have any confusion with what lid belongs to what pan.
