Golden Tickets coming to a Friday Folder near you

This Friday, your students will be bringing home a packet of Golden Tickets in their backpacks. These tickets are for two phenomenal prizes. One is a 46" Sony Bravia television combo pack, including a Bose speaker system. The second Golden Ticket prize is a 27 inch iMac computer system.

Golden Tickets can be sold to friends and family outside the Da Vinci community. This is a great way for us to increase our reach with fundraising. The prizes are fantastic. Wouldn't your co-workers, in-laws, or golf buddies like the opportunity to spend $10 (for one chance or $50 for 6 chances) to win a great flat-screen television/sound system or home computer?

There are two contest rounds running at school. The class who sells the most Golden Tickets in the first round will win an ice cream party. The class who sells the most Golden Tickets in the second round will win a pizza party. In addition, the two students who sell the most overall tickets will win Visa gift cards.

Additional Golden Tickets are available at school. Remember to fill out the entire ticket (including the name of the student on the back in the Ticket Sold By: line.)
