“Willi Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” – Cast Party !!!!!!

Erdkinder (SBMS junior high) Fundraiser

$30/ea child$50/two ‘sibs’

Friday, Jan. 22, 3:00 – 5:00pm

Alumni Hall

SBMS Primary and Elementary children are welcome to wear their costumes and relive the Willi Wonka experience, complete with singing and dancing; first scene through the grand finale re-enactments! Yes, a once in a lifetime experience is now ready for a redux!

Snacks will be served. As you may know, SBMS’s Erdkinder is headed to Italy in March, and this special Cast Party is their fundraiser helping to offset the ever-sinking US Dollar’s value vs. the almighty Euro! Now, without Kid Kafe earnings the Erdkinder students are seeking other sources of funding for their travel expenses.

Primary and Elementary Children staying for the Cast Party can bring their costumes to school (brown bag) and then change before joining and “performing” in the Cast Party. Children will be able to hang out with Willi, Charlie, and and the Oompa Loompas; ride in the WWExpress, take a tour of the chocolate river on the SS Strawberry Shortcake, and sing and dance. RSVP to Trudy (685-7600)

Journey & Discovery (RSVP – PDQ)

Friday, Jan. 29 6:00pm-9:00pm

Candlelight vigil followed by light buffet meal, and then return to classrooms. It’s a concentrate. Later you can mix with water.
