This event is our MAJOR FUNDRAISER of the school year, and is our way of kicking off the year with a fun community gathering! Fundraising takes place in the weeks leading up to the event (September 16th-30th) and the event is our means of celebrating all the efforts by coming together as a community!

All Fundraising will be done online.

Your PTSA donations support the many educational programs, events and grants we offer throughout our school. To provide the support to our school and children, to make certain programs and events possible, and to bridge the gap between public funds and actual expenses, we need to raise money. Cascade Ridge PTSA funds over $56,000 in programs, equipment, classroom supplies, and services each year that benefit our students. Programs and events like the Art docent program, Drama program, Science Fair, Heritage Festival, and many others would not exist without PTSA funds.

The event is on Friday, September 27th from 5-7pm on Cascade Ridge school grounds.

This is a family event, so please plan to attend with your child or send them with a responsible adult. Friends and family are welcome to join! Your child should go home from school as usual on the 27th, and then return with family or chaperones at 5pm.

Our students and families can enjoy many varied activities at the event, including: 

  • Scavenger Hunt: Grab a map and complete our scavenger hunt!
  • DJ: Get in the groove with your fellow Coyotes as you dance to tunes spun by a professional DJ. 
  • Sensory Zone: Join us in the cafe/gymnasium for some quiet laid back fun
  • Musical Cakes: People can purchase a chance to win a cake/dessert in our musical cake game.
  • Food trucks: Enjoy dinner with the whole fam!
  • Auction: Check out our Silent Auction items & bid directly from the event (the auction itself will continue through Monday, September 30th). 
  • Other activities: Face painting, Balloon twisting, Bubbles & more!

We are aiming to raise $35,000 this year to fund the many programs PTSA supports.

It costs an average of $100 per student annually to fund the programs, events and grants that the PTSA supports. Your donation will help us to meet our goal and continue to support education, advocacy, fun and community building at Cascade Ridge.

You may donate via credit card on our Givebacks site

You may also donate via cash or check by submitting cash and checks (made payable to Cascade Ridge PTSA)  to the black PTSA collection box in the school lobby. Please be sure to place all your donations in a sealed envelope clearly marked with your child’s name and teacher name.  

Did you know that many companies will match their employee's charitable contributions? 

You can maximize the impact of your donation by registering your donation with your employer. A matching gift program is a type of corporate giving program that essentially matches some or all of an employee's initial donation to a nonprofit organization. If your employer is one of the generous companies that offers this program, please remember to notify your employer of the donation.

All matching donations should be matched to the Cascade Ridge PTSA.

No, it is free for ANY student and their families to participate! 

Absolutely! We need volunteers in a number of different capacities to help run the event.
