I have received feedback, regarding our PTA Auction, expressing concern over the bidding of playing a College fight song at the school each Friday throughout the year. In an attempt to make the auction fun and lively, I have encouraged BYU and Utah fans to rally together to participate in a bidding war of sorts to raise money for our childrens’ programs. I enjoy the local rivalry with my BYU and UTAH friends, however I respect the feedback I have received, asking that we not introduce that rivalry into the school setting. While most of the interactions involving the Utah/BYU rivalry are light-hearted in nature, there are instances when feelings get hurt and contention results. Therefore, we have decided to pull this item from our auction.
There are over 100 other amazing items that we will be auctioning off this Friday, October 7th, 7:00-8:30 p.m. at Talon’s Cove and I hope you will plan to join us for this fun, adults only, event! This is a great opportunity for you to do Christmas shopping, Birthday shopping, Baby shower shopping and all other kinds of shopping while helping support the students of Thunder Ridge. Many volunteers have put countless hours into making this night successful and ALL of the money will go directly to school programs and activities. This is the only fundraiser our PTA has planned for the year so we encourage every person with a vested interest in Thunder Ridge students to please come and join us.
Thank you for all of your support!
