THANK YOU TO OUR AMAZING NEWCASTLE COMMUNITY

Thank you to everyone who joined our virtual LIVE Reuniting the Pride Lands event on Saturday night. We think you’ll agree it was inspiring and entertaining. The generosity of our community was once again on display – thank you to all those who bid on items, won items, donated items, donated money and to everyone who helped make this event possible. A very special thanks goes to our Auction Chairs, Nicole Anderson and Sarika Sikka. They dedicated so much of their time over the last year to helping make sure our students have everything they’ve come to expect and love from the PTSA next year.

If you missed out on the events, there are still ways you can help. We are less than $20,000 away from hitting our goal of raising $175,000. RAISE THE PADDLE will remain open until May 26 at 11:45pm. Our donor for the Mexico vacation added an additional trip so you could win a vacation for 6 to any Vidante Resort in Mexico for only $2k. There are also some great Silent Auction items still available, including the Legal Will/Estate package plan, Emsculpt, Seattle Athletic Club, and much more. See the full catalog HERE. EVERY DOLLAR counts!!! Contact auctionnewcastle2021@gmail.com with questions or if you’re interested in the Mexico vacation.

KINDERCONNECT THANKS YOU!

Thank you to the Kindergarten students and families able to attend our first KinderConnect event. We hope you enjoyed making new friends as much as we did. Contact newcatleptsa.outreach@gmail.com to be on the list for future events.
