Fundraisers!




Krispy Kreme




Krispy Kreme doughnuts was the second fundraiser we did to get money for D.C. We got the idea to sell doughnuts from some of the kid's parents in our class. Most of the kids in our class LOVE Krispy Kreme donuts so we were really excited. To get the donuts to Lake Providence we had to get some of the parents to go to Jackson, M.S. Since selling donuts was a big success we decided to sell them again.


The second time we sold Krispy Kremes we had a little mix up in the doughnuts. The doughnut people didn't give us enough doughnuts so we had to give some people a discount.It was bad!!!!! We did make alot of money though.It was one of our best fundraisers!!

Babysitting





Babysitting was the first fundraiser we did to get to Washington, D.C. The 6th grade was excited and nervous at the same time. The first time we babysat was in the 6th grade class room for the kids while their parents went to the stockholders meeting. The kids had alot of fun and so did our class. Since our class had alot of fun we wanted to babysit again.
The next time we babysat was for the adults' kids while they went to the Briarfield reunion.We babysat at the Northside Church of Christ. We ate hotdogs and had drinks. We had so much fun even though babysitting wasn't a huge success. We still wanted to babysit one last time.
The last time we babysat was for the kids while their parents went to the Rebel Open. We babysat at Briarfield in the gym. We played alot of fun games in and outside. Even though babysitting wasn't a huge success it sill got us some money for us to go to D.C!
