What's NEW this Year!
Special Project
This year, we have created a very special book, There’s No Place Like Home, as a timeless tribute to St. Francis Episcopal School. Book sales will begin on Monday, November 13, at 2:00 p.m. The proceeds from this book will be combined with the Paddles Up tradition at Gala, to create The Father Bob Wismer “People for Others” Endowed Fund for Tuition Assistance. Click here to purchase.
Yard Flocking
A new, fun way for the whole family to show support for the upcoming SFES Gala! After arriving home from school one day during the two week flocking timeframe, your children will be elated to find their front yard decorated with Wizard of Oz themed signs and props. There are a limited number of spots available, so be on the lookout for further information.
When:
October 1: Signup information in WolfWatch
October 16-27: Yard Flocking

Sign-up Parties
Be ready to party…a lot! TWO Opportunities for Gala Sign-up Parties! Gala Sign-up Parties are parent-hosted and donated events. Limited spots are sold for each event. Proceeds from these sign-ups are integral to our Gala fundraising efforts. These super-popular events include kid parties, grade-level parties, division-level parties, parent events – the possibilities are endless.

There will be TWO opportunities to purchase spots for Gala Sign-up Parties. The first party release will be in November for Winter events. The second party release will be in February for Spring events. More information to come – these spots will go quickly!
