[quote=Anonymous]One day in carpool line-up, I was hit up with three or four handouts asking for donations or cookies and cupcakes for a bake sale; auction donations; donations for the band; reminder about upcoming car wash, book sale, etc. I dropped an email to the principal suggesting that he might want to spread this out a bit. Didn't happen. He is gone. I can't tell you how many parents have complained "Please, just set up a different pay plan for the super busy over-stressed parents and I will just pay it, just please don't ask me to go to another auction, send in tissue, solicit auction items, teacher appreciation lunch, teacher xmas gift, teacher end-of-year gift". I agree. My best memory was the year when both kids' schools' auctions fell on the same night. Husband and I pointed in different directions, paid our tickets, and happily stayed home. Is it possible that I have attended 17 auctions? Why can't anyone come up with something new?[/quote]
