Football Bash Raffle for Playground Upgrades! 

The St. Patrick Charger Parent Teacher Organization (CPTO) is excited about the return of the Football Bash cash raffle for 2021. Thank you for helping us get our new playground equipment by participating in the fun! 

The CPTO has been working with AB Creative on designs to upgrade our playground. All the profits from the Football Bash and the extra money raised through our last Annual Appeal will go towards purchasing and installing this equipment during the 2021-22 school year.

What is the Fooball Bash? For those of you new to our school, the Football Bash occurs over 18 weeks during the NFL season. Each raffle ticket will be associated with 3 NFL teams assigned weekly, and points will be calculated based on their scores to establish 8 winners each week. It's not like Fantasy Football--no knowledge of teams or players is needed! Winners receive cash prizes with a top award of $500 each week! Prizes will automatically be mailed to the winners, who will be announced weekly on our website, Facebook, and Instagram. 

What is the plan for the playground?
Proceeds from the Football Bash will be used for playground upgrades. Phase one will be to replace the wooden part of the playground and phase two is to remove the mulch and replace with a rubber surface. All of the money raised from the Football Bash will go directly into a fund for this project. We anticipate completing the first phase of the project this year with funds raised from the Football Bash and the $23,000 we’ve received from last school year's Annual Appeal fundraiser. This is a project that has been talked about for quite a while, and we now have a plan to make it happen! 

Remember that CPTO is focusing on one fundraiser in addition to the Annual Appeal/Main Event this year, and the Football Bash is it!
