SUBJECT: Sandburg Holiday Giving Campaign

Happy Thanksgiving Break!

We hope next week brings everyone much love, joy and happiness to you all! We are thankful for our entire Sandburg community — children, families, and staff. Sandburg isn’t complete without each and every one of you! Thank you for all that you do to keep our community great!

We have just a couple quick items to share this afternoon. First, we are excited to share the details for the 2023 Sandburg Family Holiday Giving Campaign. Our goal is to support Sandburg families that may need some additional assistance this year. Please consider helping a fellow Sandburg Family. Your contributions and donations are so appreciated and make a BIG difference for many! Keep reading for more details.

Just a reminder that TONIGHT is the Holiday Grand Parade at Streets of SouthGlenn. Join Sandburg families in marching through the Streets in a parade that escorts Santa, Mrs. Claus and their elves to their holiday home at SouthGlenn. Bundle up while sporting any Sandburg gear and holiday flair to promote our mountain lion spirit.

Don't forget to stock up on some Sandburg gear as you begin your holiday shopping next week! 1st Place Spiritwear is running a sale on all spirit wear items through December 8th.  Save 20% off sitewide, plus free shipping on orders over $75.

We look forward to seeing everyone back on November 27th. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
