Last night was our 2nd official movie night at Carson elementary and it went incredibly well. Our feature presentation was IGOR and it was hot off the presses having being released on Tuesday. We estimate that we had more like 300-350 attendees, but we were ready for more. The 6th graders from Mrs. Dochow's class were set up with treats and pizza in the back of the gym, the pre-order line was separate so those that pre-ordered their pizza could go straight back and pick it up. The Schwann's deliveryman was there with a variety of ice cream treats for sale, and the movie was set up and ready to go right on schedule.
What made this even especially great was that Sarah, our movie night coordinator, was able to contact Exodus, the movie production company, and they sent us a whole box of fabulous items to use as give aways and door prizes! The kids recieved pins, bracelets, or posters on arrival and also were given door prize tickets to be entered to win some bigger prizes. These included, first edition IGOR comics, coloring books, build your own monster kits, board games, and a Wii game! Way to Go Sarah! Our winners were pleased with their goodies.
A huge thank you to all who attended. Our PTA is still working hard to bring the families of Carson great events and opportunities to interact at the school with their student. We appreciate your feedback and your time if you are able to volunteer.
