School Supplies Drive/Competition



July 24th-August 2nd



Students should get involved to help their team win! All eligible students are entering grades 6-8 and 9-12.


The Youth Group will be hosting a school supplies drive starting July 24th for the Running Start for School Initiative. Supplies donated will help k-12 students in Olmsted County. High school and middle school students will compete to see who can bring in the most donations. We will celebrate with a party at the end of the drive and one lucky participant will win a free ticket to our Valley Fair trip on Aug. 24th! All parishioners are encouraged to donate. Choose a “team” (High School or Middle School) to award points to—or help both teams! Drop off items to the blue bins in the gathering space. See the Point System below. Get your items in right away. We will collect supplies from July 24th-August 2nd. Supplies can also be dropped off at the Parish Office Center anytime during the drive.
