Come Out & Play Night and Book Fair: September 24

One of the greatest community events at Clifford is the annual Come Out & Play night! This year’s energy- and fun-filled gathering happens Tuesday, September 24, from 4:30 to 7PM approximately. K through 5 students and their families are invited.

The blacktop becomes home to a slew of games and activities — dodge ball, hoola-hooping, skipping, tennis like you’ve never seen before, other ball games, and more! Parents are encouraged to join in. The kids, in particular, get a kick out of the Students vs. Adults dodge ball antics.

Food, snacks, and drinks will be on sale, too.

We need parent helpers to make this fantastic event be a success. Please contact Ann Berljafa via aberljafa@gmail.com  and 650-766-0962 to let her know how you can help.

Specific jobs:

  • Water coolers:  someone to fill the water coolers with water and lemonade, buy ice
  • Set up tables (coolers are available at school)
  • Paper cups: someone to pick up paper cups for the water (at least 100) and medium-size cups (6-8oz for lemonade)
  • Costco run: Somebody to pick up bottled water, nacho cheese and chips
  • Pizza: someone to order pizza (cheese, pepperoni ); Costco or elsewhere

In addition, Come Out & Play night this year will be combined with the Scholastic Book Fair. 5th Grade teacher, Mrs. Defouw, has offered to open the doors for students and parents for a visit — and hopefully to shop!  If you are interested in helping at the Book Fair, please contact Ann Bejljafa at aberljafa@gmail.com or Victoria Defouw at vdefouw@rcsdk8.net.
