Farallone View Elementary’s 28th annual Holiday Gift Bazaar will be Saturday, Dec 6, in the Multi-Use room from 9am to 2pm.
There will be lots of holiday favorites –- photos with Santa, handmade crafts, fresh wreaths, baked goodies and lunch, games, a children’s craft area featuring gingerbread houses and face painting. There will also be live entertainment and the famous cake walk.
Children’s Shopping Hour is from 9 to 10am. During this time, kids will have the opportunity to shop and gift wrap their purchases without help from their parents. We’ll need older kids (10 and over) to help the younger ones. Students from 4th & 5th grades can sign-up to help.
Parent volunteers are needed to help out on the day of the Bazaar.
Giftwrap: Wrapping supplies are needed for the Kids’ Wrapping Station. This station is where all the students can have their purchases gift wrapped free of charge during the Bazaar. They rely on your donations of paper, ribbon and gift bags. There will be a donation box available in the PTA room for you to drop off your donations. If you are unable to get your donations to the school, call Mara Krasts at 563-9505 to request a pick up.
Gingerbread Houses: They will happily accept boxes of graham crackers, lots of white frosting, hard candy and leftover Halloween candy.
Baked Items and other Goodies: Baked goods are sold during the Bazaar. Homemade or store-bought items are welcome and appreciated. This includes cookies, muffins, brownies, festive breads and cakes for the cake walk. Donations of soda or juice boxes, paper plates, napkins and cups are also needed. Baked goods and cakes will go to the PTO room (next to the MU room) on Friday, December 5th or the morning of the Bazaar.

Congresswoman Jackie Speier in Pacifica, Saturday, Mar 16 1:46pm, Kevin Barron — This should be interesting.
