Basket fundraiser tickets now on sale Eliza McLaughlin - Staff Reporter Townsend School District is kicking off its annual basket fundraiser this year with a theme that hits close to home: MSU Bobcats versus U of M Griz.
Tickets went on sale to students today, Dec. 2 at school and will open to the public at the City Office during the Dec. 3 Christmas Stroll event for 50 cents each. Tickets will also be available at various local businesses throughout the month of December.
The basket winners will be drawn during half-time of the Dec. 20 home basketball games.
“We, at the Middle School, think that this is a very worthwhile and fun fundraiser,” read a parent letter sent out by the school.
Items in the baskets were donated by middle school families and staff.
All the money raised returns to the students in the form of rewards, incentives or programs, Middle School Principal Brad Racht told MT 43 News. These returns could include field trips, semester prizes, treats and dances.
