We have devised a plan for a virtual Mission Fair to continue our tradition (for the past almost 100 years) of supporting our founders, the Holy Cross Sisters and the Moreau School they have built in Uganda. All proceeds will be sent to the Holy Cross sisters for this purpose.
Virtual Wristband: These are the traditional tickets to enter the fair. We are encouraging everyone to consider purchasing a bracelet to ‘attend’ throughout the week and on Saturday. (You will receive nothing tangible from this purchase but you will know that you have helped support the sisters.) We’re also encouraging families to reenact Mission Fair games at home and submit pictures that you might be willing to share to media@blessedsacramentdc.org. Click here to purchase your $10 virtual wristband.
Virtual Bake Sale: Have a teacher deliver you some delicious treats! Teachers have volunteered to bake/purchase treats and hand deliver them to your home (contactless delivery but teachers will ring/knock so students can see their delivery in action). Click here to see a list of the teachers and items available for purchase. If there isn't an item listed, you will have the opportunity to discuss with the teacher what baked good you're craving or hear a list of the teacher's specialties to choose from. After the fair, the teachers will contact you to schedule the delivery. Click here to purchase a baked good delivery.
Raffle Drawings: For every Labor of Love completed, each child gets an entry into the raffle drawings. We will have three prizes: a candy basket, a BS Bulldog swag bag and an Ipad. The Mission Fair will take place next Saturday, April 25. At a specified time that afternoon, we will pull the names for the drawing and announce them (still working on some of these details).
Labors of Love: The deadline to submit Labors of Love was Friday, April 24 at 12pm. Thank you to all who participated.
Teacher Dares: Teacher dares are no longer available for purchase. The dares will be posted on YouTube early next week!
