It's that time of year again......Big Wood School's Annual Fundraising Raffle.
And this year the packages are going to BLOW YOUR MIND!!!

Thanks to funds raised from our previous raffles we have been able to accomplish so many amazing things that have helped us to create our extraordinary, one-of-a-kind, top-notch learning center and preschool! We have raised money for our Security and Front Entrance Remodel, our Sensory Room Renovation, our Playground Upgrades, our Scholarship Fund, our COVID Relief Effort, our Touchless Water Bottle Filling Stations, our gorgeous Vinyl Flooring and Carpeting, and the Continuing Early Childhood Education Opportunity granted to our teachers to participate in national conferences, providing enrichment, inspiration, and encourgement. Every one of these things has benefitted our students, staff, families, school and Church exponentially and that is all because of YOU!

Galena Day is back!  We're gathering as a church family at Galena Lodge on Saturday, March 16.  Your family is welcome to come and play as long as you'd like.  When you're ready to take a break from the cold, we'll have coffee, tea, and hot cocoa available near the picnic tables from 11am until 2pm.  We'll also be providing a hot mug of soup and bread from the lodge at noon. 

Finally, don't forget your sleds, snowshoes, or skis.  We hope you'll make plans now to join us!  Reservations are not necessary.

One of the most exciting times of the year is when we gather together with our families to pack shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. Well, get excited because it's that time of year! Shoeboxes are available in the church lobby now. Grab yours and gather your family for a packing party. Church of the Big Wood's Collection Day will be Sunday, November 12. Let's help share the love of Jesus with children all over the world. Grab your shoeboxes today!
