“At SLDS, we understand that nature-based outdoor education leads to positive learning and developmental outcomes, including enhanced physical and mental well-being. What an important time to make sure that our young children have ample opportunity to experience the powerful outcomes of well-designed outdoor experiences! Together we are providing every opportunity to support our young students’ emotional, social, intellectual, physical, and spiritual development!”

What is Spring Picnic?

Spring Picnic is a fun evening with family and friends, and it is also our school’s primary Spring fundraiser. There are so many great ways to contribute to our fundraising efforts. The sale of Event Tickets, Dinner Tickets, T-shirts, Personalized Children’s Placemats, Teacher Appreciation Packages, and Black & White Photos all go directly towards supporting our wonderful school. A Silent Auction of fabulous packages offering items and experiences from local businesses also raises significant funds. Additionally, Underwriting opportunities are available to families, friends, and businesses.

Proceeds from the annual Spring Picnic are primarily be used to benefit our three Nature Explore Certified Outdoor Classrooms. Through this designated fundraiser, our beautiful outdoor play areas are upgraded and refreshed each year as our vision grows for meaningful outdoor learning opportunities.  Additionally, a portion of the money raised is earmarked for scholarship assistance to help our students in need. Underwriting donations, like yours, account for more than half of the funds raised by the Spring Picnic, which go directly to support these important projects, which cannot be funded through tuition alone.

 

Our Fundraisers

UNDERWRITING

The campus enhancements and student scholarships would not be possible without the support of our underwriters. Consider making a tax deductible donation to our school to touch the lives of many. Donors will be recognized on the website and at the event.

dinner TICKETS

Pre-purchase your Central Market boxed dinner by Monday, April 22nd. Meal purchase is in addition to your event ticket. You are also welcome to bring your own family picnic to enjoy. Boxed meals will not be available for purchase the day of the event, so place your order today!

t-shirts & placemats

T-shirts, available in both child and adult sizes, are the most colorful way to show your Spring Picnic spirit. Pre-order now and you will receive your shirts in mid-April.

Take the Spring Picnic fun home with a personalized placemat featuring your child’s name.

Teacher appreciation

Get your class together to show your beloved teachers how much you appreciate them by purchasing a banner in their honor to be displayed at the Spring Picnic. Each Teacher Appreciation Package will sponsor the teacher’s dinner tickets and event t-shirts.

BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOS

Every spring our talented black and white photo chair volunteers her time or talent to photograph every student at St. Luke’s Day School. These photo packages will be available for purchase shortly before Spring Picnic and for a few weeks after.

SILENT AUCTION

This year’s silent auction will include an array of items and services donated by local businesses and Day School families. Online bidding will open on April 25th and bidding will close at 10 p.m. on the evening of picnic, April 26th.
