SPRING PRODUCTION “LAND TRANSPORTATION RACE”  :: Dress Rehearsal (Pre-school children welcome to this performance) Wednesday, March 21 at 1:30 :: TWO (2) Spring Production Nights Thursday, March 22 at 7:00 Friday, March 23 at 7:00

Our Spring Production has been so popular in recent years that we’ve made a few adjustments: first, we’ve added a Thursday night show, and second, we’re asking for people to sign up for tickets in advance. Sign up is at the link below.  Our Spring Production has always been free, and we’d like to keep it that way…but we need your help!

Please read the instructions and sign up for only what you’re sure you need. 2. Please note that children younger than 5 are welcome at the Wednesday afternoon show, but are not permitted at the evening shows. Childcare is available on Thursday and Friday evening. 3. Please, please, please be considerate of other parents. We had 500 people at our Friday night show last year, and need to distribute those numbers across two shows. If everyone wants to see every show, we will not have enough space. 4. We will have a limited number of seats available at the door, but a ticket is the only way to guarantee entry.  Again, please read the instructions on the ticketing site. You can sign up for tickets at http://pucs.org/2018-spring-production-land-transportation-race/

Donations needed for Spring Production bake sale! After the Spring Production, enjoy some treats at the 4th and 5th-grade bake sale. The bake sale is a fundraiser for the 4th and 5th-grade class trip to Gettysburg. If you’d like to donate individually baked treats (nut free please) or bottles of water to sell, please contact Jess Edgar rhedgar@gmail.com or Erin Junker ejunker1@verizon.net

After the Spring Production on March 22nd and 23rd, please look for the Bible Study Fellowship’s (BSF) table in the gym. BSF is a group made up of students in Ms. Fuller’s and Mrs. Reitsma’s classrooms who are sponsoring a child, Maria Agusta. They look forwarding to talking to you about the BSF and how you can help support Maria.
