ComedySportz Evening for Preschool
Monday, March 16th, 2009Patrick Short and Ruth Jenkins, former preschool members, have graciously agreed to host a fundraising evening for us at their business ComedySportz. ComedySportz is improvisational comedy where two teams battle for laughs as they make up scenes, stories and songs on the spot. Best of all, once we meet a minimum number of tickets sold, the proceeds will be donated to Portland Tillamook Preschool! The show encourages audience participation, and is always “family friendly” i.e. no inappropriate language or references. This whole family event will be on Satuday, April 18, at 4:30pm. Put it on your calendar now!
Tickets for the show must be purchased from ComedySportz directly, either on their website www.portlandcomedy.com or telephone reservations 503.236.8888. You can buy your tickets anytime, $10 each, our show is already on their website! So we can track our progress, please buy your tickets well in advance. Invite friends and family, and we can sell out the show!
In conjunction with the ComedySportz evening, we will also have a raffle prior to the show. This has been very successful in past years, raising several hundred dollars. We will have the same opportunity this year, so we need to start thinking about raffle prizes. Do you have a business that can donate an item or service? Do you have a talent or skill to donate? Prizes have ranged from gift baskets with Movie Night or Family Game Night themes. We have also had home cooked dinners delivered to your door, cookie baskets, hand knitted purses, wine, jewelry, photography, and more. Please contact Megan if you have an idea for a raffle prize.
This is a great opportunity to generate some bonus income for the school. This year, we are designating all of the income from this event to go towards the expenses of building our new indoor climbing structure.
