Kindergarten Play/cast party

27 comments:

The cast party is for cast and families. The comments I received have been positive for the pizza party prior to the play instead of a party after. If you disagree with that, please post a comment. Mr. and Mrs. Hoagland and Mrs. Kirchhoff have volunteered to help organize the cast party. We should also consider "goodie" bags to give the children after the play. No dessert will be necessary at the pizza party but may be included in the "goodie bag".

Please remember that anything you post will be read by all invitees which include all the parents in both Mrs. Price's class and Mrs. Sherman's class, Mrs. Price, Mrs. Sherman, Mrs. Reed, and Mrs. Gutekunst. Essentially, this is a public forum.

I won't be available to help with a pre-party, but would be happy to contribute any food/drink needed or to goody bags.

Katrina Young (Zak's mom) said...

I am available to help as needed, please let me know!

Tim and I will be available before and after to help. Pizza sounds good to me. What else do we need to bring??? Paper products, drinks, etc.?

I will be available to help at the party, before and after.
I would be thrilled to make the goodie bags..perhaps I could get together with a parent from Mrs Sherman's class.

Karla said...

Shawna Brent is interested in helping with the cast party.

Melissa Dehoff said...

I can help in anyway possible with the party. Just let me know what to bring, etc.

Lisa Winnick said...

I can take care of plates, napkins, utensils and juice for the party. Let me know how many kids total there are between the two classes.

Shawna said...

Pam,

You and I could coordinate for the post party goody bags. I will be out of town from April 9-20, but we could easily figure it out the week I return.

I am available to help with the party--Lisa--how about if I bring the juice? Anything I can do--let me know.

Does the party include families? If so, we'll need a headcount for pizza. Should we put a list together and have people sign up??

Elaine said...

Yes. The parties includes families. There are a total of 33 students. We could send out a form to get a head count on total amount of people. The children usually eat about 2 pieces -maybe three- depending on the slice size.

Nolan Mazza said...

Shawna,
We will talk about the goodie bags.
When you get back.
We can talk at school..or you can call me 649-3243(cell) or 728-3993(home)

Dara (Ben's Mom) said...

I am happy to help with the cast party, before or after the play. Will bring whatever you want or just contribute money, if you prefer. Do we need fresh fruit? Just let me know. We are out of town April 21-26.

Waldman said...

I am also available to help out with the party as needed! Let us know what needs to be contributed.
Maybe we could put a pack of seeds in the goody bags so the kids could start their own "gardens" for the spring!

Tamara: That's great- I'll let you handle the juice duty! Thanks!

I would like to make a suggestion. Why don't we all just contribute money (maybe $10.00 to $20.00), which would cover the pizza, juice, goodie bag, paper products, snacks, etc. Any leftover money could be used towards whatever is needed for the set or just donated to the kindergarten class. I would be willing to go to Costco some morning with another volunteer to pick up whatever we need.

Beth Ann,
Sounds good to me---that is probably a more organized way to do it then everyone volunteering different items. Great idea!

Mary B. (Aidan's mom) said...

BethAnn, I am happy to contribute to the party fund. I volunteer to meet you at Costco to shop for whatever we need, just pick a morning.

Elaine said...

I love the idea of a packet of seeds in the goodie bag. Now I know where the children get all their creativity!

Dara (Ben's Mom) said...

Julie Halbert (William's mom) said that she would like to get the cake for the cast party. She said that Costco does a great flower cake. Thoughts?

Elaine said...

I will be sending home a sign up sheet in you child's folder for cast party jobs and help with costumes. There is also an attendence sheet for the cast party so that we can get a count for pizza. Please return it in your child's folder and we will forward it to Mrs. Hoagland. Thanks for all this excellent organization!

ba712 said...

Miranda I think our camcorder is digital. I'll bring it in and you can take a look.

Elaine said...

That is great! Do we need to put out a sign up sheet for videos and do we know what the cost will be?

ba712 said...

If you have not responded with your count for the cast party, please send in your sheet or email me at ba71@aol.com I need to place the order for the vegetable tray by noon on Monday, and Mary and I are going to pick up everything else on Wednesday. Thanks!

Sorry, that's ba712@aol.com.
