FUNDRAISING: HOST A SIGN-UP PARTY FOR THE AUCTION
|
What is a Sign-Up? It is a party/event hosted by Miraloma families as a donation to the auction. At the Auction, people sign up for parties by bidding on a slot.
Last year these "Sign-Ups" brought in over $100,000 at our Auction - about a third of our total earnings! We hope we'll get as many fun Sign-Ups as possible this year.
What kind of parties/events can you host? Whatever you like! Adult-only, kids-only, or family events. In the past, we've had Italian, Indian, Peruvian, Caribbean, and Brazilian food-fests, beer and wine tastings, Dutch and South American cocktail parties, and game nights for the adults. For kids, there have been science, Lego, knitting, bowling, sleepover parties, and a lot more. Contact us for more information/ideas.
Please join in the fun and submit your sign-up party here.

TRAFFIC FLOW: ROCKDALE & MYRA--DRIVE TOWARDS SCHOOL
|
|
Please follow the traffic guidelines during morning drop off and drive only in the direction towards school on Rockdale and Myra. While these are both designated as two-way streets, they are not wide enough for two-way traffic flow. Our neighbors continue to have difficulty driving to work and school in the morning. Thank you for your help!
