The classroom with the most students in attendance will receive a donut party. In addition to FUN, there will be an ice cream cart, a lemonade truck, as well as a food truck for you to purchase goodies. There will also be LaGondola sandwiches for purchase at the Food Table. 

The Cakewalk makes its return! Each child in a family will receive ONE ticket for the cakewalk. The cakewalk will happen every half hour throughout the event with multiple rounds per session.
