Elementary school bake sale helps to fund various Puxi campus ES projects

The International Fair ES Bake Sale is quickly becoming a favorite tradition. The proceeds from the ES bake Sale go back directly to Puxi campus ES for various projects and activities. It is easy to support the Bake Sale. Volunteers are needed to donate baked goods. Lots of cookies, brownies, cakes, and breads are needed.

All donations should be delivered to the school the day before the Fair on Friday, September 25.  Baked goods can also be dropped off at the booth on the morning of the Fair.

If you don’t bake but want to help, the committee will also need volunteers to man the booth on Fair day as well as the day before for set-up.
