This item will be featured in the Live Auction and includes round-trip coach class airfare for two to New Orleans, a three-night stay at the Hyatt French Quarter, VIP admission for two to the Preservation Hall of Jazz, and a choice of brunch or three-course dinner at Commander’s Palace Restaurant. Winspire booking and concierge service will help make your trip worry-free!

There are many ways to make a contribution to this year's Charity Auction. We are always looking for items to be used in either the Silent or Live Auction. Cash donations are always welcome!

The opportunity is still open to become the Main Event Sponsor too! For more information on how to become a Sponsor, contact Geoff Ziesemer at 414-397-4550 or geoff.z...@yahoo.com .

= S(ubstitute) C(ash) R(ebate) I(ncentive) P(rogram) =
Did you know that March 31 is the last day to earn credit toward your student’s 2015-2016 tuition account. Rebates earned after March 31st will then be applied toward the 2016-2017 school year. Purchase KML Scrip for your regular purchases and earn rebates to bring down the cost of tuition. Don’t forget to use scrip on your not-so-regular purchases, too!
Planning to get away over Spring Break this year. Why not utilize Scrip cards for your hotel, gas, and/or meals. Hotels like Comfort Suites (3-4%), Clarion (3-4%), Hyatt (10%) and Marcus Resorts (9%) can be purchased to help earn money towards your child's tuition. It's a simple way for you to earn a reward while taking your family vacation.
We still have some small denomination gift cards on hand from Target $10 and Walmart $10.
= REMEMBER ECHO FEST? =
We’re going retro this year for Family Music Fest 2015! Remember Echo Fest? Do you still have an old Echo Fest admission button floating around? Please reserve Friday, April 17, from 5:00-9:00 pm for Retro Fest. This event will support our music department. In addition to our elementary school and high school musical performances, we will feature a chili dinner, games, auctions, and the dessert bar and will showcase the Grade School Art Fair exhibits. Join us for a night of music, food, and family fun with some new surprises, special guests, and trips down memory lane. Anyone presenting an Echo Fest button at the door will receive free admission!
We are asking for pie and basket donations for auction. Please consider helping! If you have questions or would like to volunteer or join the Family Music Fest Committee, please contact Andrea Semmann (414-588-7725 or alse...@gmail.com) or Ann Jahns (414-659-1511 or jahns...@yahoo.com).
