Empire State Games 2007
Text Box: Battling for the lead! My name is Michael DiMarino, perhaps you know my mom. My kindergarten class really wants to win the Box Tops for Education contest that my school (New City Elementary) is onducting. Putting it simply, the class that collects the most Box Tops wins an Ice Cream party. They also mentioned something about raising money for the school, I guess that’s good too. My teacher Ms. Bray loves ice cream and we want to win the party for her. We have one problem, a second grade class, has a mom that has access to box tops through work. This may seem unfair but we will not go down without a fight. When the going gets tough the tough get going. If you want to help, please clip and save the Box Tops proofs...it looks like the sample mom provided above. Mail them to me, Michael DiMarino, 32 Cragmere Oval, New City, NY 10956. My class mate Samantha Pollak and I are both RRR members and although we are small we are fiercely competitive and really want to win despite the disadvantage. The contest ends May 31st! Recent donation came from: Jenna, Jerry and Jeffery Dangler, Jerry Sun and Cheryl Langus. Your contributions and support are appreciated. Your friend Michael.
