PTO Fundraising
We have two school events at Towne Meadow that we use as fundraisers to budget for our PTO.
- Boosterthon is our BIGGEST fundraiser of the year which helps us to bring in about 2/3rds of our budget with a week long fundraising effort where our students and staff help to collect donations. The PTO helps to organize incentives throughout the week as we reach our goals and it ends with a dance party for each grade level to celebrate our success!
- Carnival is a night where families come to play carnival games, bid on our silent auction, eat dinner and enjoy the night with the Towne Meadow community. This fundraiser is one night only and helps in complete our fundraising for the year.
This year we are also adding a Pacers Family Night along with Dine to Donate events to help with fundraising for our school. We thank you in advance for supporting the PTO this school year!
Boosterthon
The TME Dance Party Fall Fundraiser is a full week of FUN for our students and staff. All students receive a dance party shirt to wear during the event.
Students have grade level incentives as they reach their fundraising goals such as extra recess, board game day, movie at lunch and others set by the teachers.
We also do school wide incentives for everyone to enjoy such as ice cream sundaes after lunch, yard games at recess, crazy hair day and staff inflatable costume races. See pictures below!
