Fundraising




Poinsettia Sales: Annually the club partners with the school to have the elementary students sell poinsettias. 100% of the profits from this fundraiser go towards purchasing new playground equipment for both elementary schools. Currently the club is working with the school on developing a new playground improvement plan. Results of student playground surveys have been taken into consideration in developing the new purchasing plan.

Cookbook Sales: The club put together a new cookbook featuring recipes from current and former club members, elementary students and their families. This cookbook also uses student generated art work throughout it. Cookbooks can be purchased from club members, at the Griswold Holiday Expo, and at some community events. For more information or to order contact Callie Elwood at 778-4579 or Amy McLaren 778-2296.

















Spring and Fall Fundraisers: Each spring and fall, club members hold various fundraisers which have included food sales, candle sales, and personalized books and CDs.

Griswold Reunion Food Stand: On Friday night of reunion the club offers a food stand at the park during and after the parade.
