TIMBERWOLF TROT UPDATE
Thank you so much to everyone involved in organizing our annual (and only) fundraiser for Timber Trail for the 24-25 school year! We are so very appreciative of all of the support shown to raise funds for a new gym floor. We look forward to showing pictures of the new floor when we return from Fall Break!
As of today, an amazing amount of $55,535 was raised! Thank you to our amazing PTO and all of our families! The students had a wonderful time participating today, and it was so fun to see all of the parents come to support. Again, thank you so much to everyone for your efforts in this fundraiser.
