COOKIE BAKE SALE
FOR
2008 SJA 8TH GRADE v. LISLE POLICE BASKETBALL GAME
“The Basketball Game of the Year” is soon approaching and it will include a cookie bake sale to contribute towards the fundraising. All 8th grade families are to provide cookies for this event regardless of whether or not you are attending.
Each 8th grade family’s cookie donation should consist of:
8 zip-lock bags containing 3 cookies each for a total of 2 dozen cookies

- Any shape of cookie or cut bar is acceptable. (Please do not send whole cakes or pans of desserts for this event.)

- Feel free to mix and match cookie types within a bag, or they may all be the same kind within a bag. The more interesting the better!

- The bags will sell for $1.00 each, so please provide cookies that you and others would be willing to buy for that price.
We are looking forward to receiving creative cookie assortments so that they sell well.
It is intended that people will want to them as a tasty treat to follow a dinner of great sandwiches from the concession stand, or they may want to take them home for later.
MARK YOUR CALENDARS: The 8 zip-lock bags of 3 cookies each need to be brought to school on game day: Friday – May 9. You may bring them to the SJA Gym Lobby either from 7:30am-8:00am that morning or at 5:00pm that evening. Thank you!
