Dear St. Mary Parents,
Thank you for helping St Mary sell raffle tickets again this year! After every family sells their 5 tickets we will make around $16,000 for the school. Please watch for your tickets to come home today.
We are raffling off a Carnival Cruise of your choice and a Traeger Bar-B-Q. Feel free to call me if you have any questions or would like more tickets to sell.
