Indigo Night
Who doesn’t love a great way to get our kids’ reading and at the same time raise funds to give back to our school library. Typically held in the Fall at the Cornwall/Trafalgar location.
Halloween Haunt – Community Event
The Home & School Association has been putting on this event for over fifteen years. It’s a Spooktacular costume party with various games, haunted house, bake sale table and cake walk. This event is typically held the Friday before Halloween in the evening in the school gym. We need volunteers to shop for supplies, set-up, run calk walk, bake sale table, raffle table, drink station etc.
Breakfast with Santa – Community Event
Annual Breakfast with Santa that takes place on a Saturday in December. This is a great Brookdale tradition which brings families together over a hearty pancake breakfast with perhaps a wee surprise visitor to add to the occasion. They are 3 sittings for breakfast – 8am, 9am and 10am. Book your preference using the School Cash Online system and get ready to meet the big man himself. Any profits made from this great event are donated to Trinity Families. We need volunteers to shop for food, set-up the day before, cook & serve food and clean up.
Typically held in February, the Dance-A-Thon is our biggest fundraiser and has been bringing in between $5000-$6000 that goes directly back to the school. There is a Glow Shop the day of the event for kids to purchase glow rings, necklaces etc. This event is fully run & organized by parent volunteers and requires a large time commitment from those involved. Volunteers are needed to prepare the pledgelopes to send to the kids, organizing the pledgelopes when the come back in & preparing the raffle tickets, buying and organizing the raffles prizes, running the actual day (set-up, glow show sales, clean up).
Staff Appreciation Lunch
The day we say thank you to all our wonderful Brookdale staff. We need volunteers to drop off food (prepare your favorite dish to share), set-up the library, serve food & take over lunch duties so the staff can all eat together. Typically held in April or May.
End of Year Round-Up – Community Event
Our year-end BBQ is our way to finish out the year! Held on the school blacktop there is a BBQ, carnival games, inflatables, raffle table and Cake Walk. Volunteers are required for food shopping, raffle table organization, ticket selling, cooking food, set-up & clean-up.
