Camp Read A Lot 2010-2011
J.A. Coles has an exciting new program to tell you about! We are participating in various TerraCycle Brigades, which means we will be collecting cookie wrappers, drink pouches, Elmer glue/glue sticks, and Scotch tape dispensers to divert them from landfills and earn money. This free collection program also educates people about reusing, provides a boost in funding for us and most importantly, save tons of garbage from ending up in a landfill.
We would like to kick off this program at Family Fun Night on September 24th. You can help by having your child bring in any empty drink pouch brand and any tape/spool dispenser brand, cookie wrappers(any size/brand), and Elmer Glue bottles/sticks. Drop off bins will be set up at the doors. We will then send them to TerraCycle and, in return, receive $0.02 each. TerraCycle will upscale the materials we collect into cool new eco-friendly and affordable products.
The TerraCycle Brigade programs are a fun and easy way for us to empower children to make a difference locally and globally while at the same time learning about the importance of recycling and reusing. Your participation is a key part of our efforts.
Thank you in advance for helping us reduce the amount of waste going to landfills and raise money. If you should have any questions, please call or email me.
Thank you,
Dennise Fleck

About Tips and Thank-you Gifts
Guidelines regarding tips and thank you's for volunteers
Due to the extreme variations in opinions regarding "Thank You's," the following guidelines have been set:
PTA Funds may not be used for giving any volunteer "thank you" gifts or tips. The cost of any gift given to volunteers will have to be provided by the committee chair(s). An inexpensive suggestion is to host a potluck luncheon. In addition any thank you gifts to the office staff will have to be provided by the committee chair(s).
An exception to this rule would involve the school custodians. The custodians are responsible for an extraordinary amount of extra work when a PTA event takes place. Due to this, a reasonable amount of compensation may be authorized to thank them. This amount should be included in the budget figures established in the beginning of the school year. Prior approval MUST be granted if the event or project is over budget or the gift will cause an overage.
