2) Volunteers: Sign up link, and Bookshop Needs (Deliver by Dec. 2)


The Holiday Bookshop is happening

Thursday, Dec. 5th and Friday Dec. 6th!


 Children will visit the holiday bookshop and select a book for immediate family members for a suggested donation of $2! Half of the proceeds will be given to the Mustard Seed and half will go to LEPAC.


The Holiday Bookshop is looking for only 3 more volunteers to help replenish and wrap books! If you are able to help out, please sign up in one of the available slots:


Reminder: all volunteers must have a valid criminal record check on file with the school, but we welcome all volunteers including grandparents and caregivers!


📚The main thing: We need books to make this successful!📚

So, please dust off the old recipe books, fiction/nonfiction books and other gems.

We also need:


  • gift wrap,

  • bows, 

  • tags and

  • gently used gift bags!


Please deliver your books and wrapping supplies by Monday, Dec. 2nd to the labeled boxes in front of the office.


Thank you all for your generosity and support of this fun event.

4) Order Now: Fun Lunch Sign up links (Order/Volunteer)


💜 Fun lunch reminders:

  • Please make sure to send your kiddo(s) with lunch if you do not plan to purchase fun lunch.

  • If you do order, it's a good idea to send your kiddo(s) with some options to complement the fun lunch if they are picky eaters.

  • If your child is absent the day of the fun lunch, please be aware that they may forfeit the lunch, as it may may not keep for long or get donated.


If you'd like to get a head start on future fun lunch days, please place your order on the Hot Lunch website now/anytime: https://lochside.hotlunches.net/ 


Our next Fun Lunch is, Fri. Nov 29 (Subway). Orders closed Nov. 21st.


Our final 2024 Fun Lunch will be, Fri. Dec 13 (Dominos). Orders will be accepted until Thursday, December 5, 2024.
