Published on by hwk8mc

This event is for everyone! Not a skier? No problem! Get the winter layers you need to keep you and your family warm and dry during the cold months ahead. And if you do ski or snowboard – make sure you’re ready to head into the mountains once the snow hits!

The ski swap will feature new and last year’s ski and snowboard gear from a few local ski shops, as well as new and gently used winter apparel. Get outfitted for winter and help raise money for our school! Jackets, skis, gloves, boots, hats, gloves, and more!

This event is open to the public and anyone who wants to stay warm this winter and support a great cause is welcome!

  2. Is this just for kid’s gear? Nope, the sale will have gear and clothing in both adult and child sizes. 
  3. What can I consign? We are looking for any and all gently used winter layers and gear. Jackets, gloves, hats, skis, boots, poles, snowboards. Every outer layer to stay warm and dry and any gear to hit the slopes.
  4. I want to volunteer, do I need to have pre-approved clearance? Nope, since this event is outside and not inside the building volunteers are not required to have completed the clearance forms. 
  5. Does volunteering count towards service hours? YES! Any high school volunteers just need to bring their form and the hours will count towards their service learning requirement. This does not apply to 7th and 8th graders that volunteer.

Just drop off your consignment items on Thursday or Friday and we will do our best to sell them for you. 35% of each consigned item sold will go to benefit the PTSA, the rest is yours and we will mail you a check after the event.

Stock Up on Books for Summer Reading at the Book Fair This Week

Published on by elliskatherinem

Book Fair this week in the Hazel Wolf Library! This year we are partnering with Secret Garden Books in Ballard for our fair.  Parents can go to the Secret Garden website at:  https://www.secretgardenbooks.com/hazel-wolf-k-8-book-fair?couponHW

You can shop online or just see what will be available at the Library.  Instructions are available on the landing page of the website.  The virtual Book Fair where families can shop and purchase books through the Secret Garden website runs simultaneously.  If families order books through the site, they will be delivered to school for students to bring home and the Hazel Wolf Library still receives a portion of the sales!

 Students can shop at the Book Fair before school, during lunch recess and after school.  Classes will also be able to browse during their regular library times.  Dr. V will provide students with forms so they can create wish lists and families can budget and send appropriate funds with students (or shop together after school every day and until 6pm on Wednesday).  

Families can also purchase books from teacher wish lists for their classrooms!  Dr. V will be accepting credit cards, checks and cash.  A portion of all proceeds will go directly to the Hazel Wolf Library Fund to help build our collection 😊

Fill the Truck

Let’s raise money for Hazel Wolf K-8 PTSA by giving up stuff we really don’t need anymore!

We are partnering with Seattle Goodwill to hold a donation drive.

Clothing, jewelry, household items, electronics: you can bring almost anything to the donation drive, provided it is not hazardous waste, in need of repair, furniture or a TV weighing over 50 pounds. 

Donations to Seattle Goodwill support its free Job Training and Education programs. Last year, Seattle Goodwill provided free training to over 13,375 people, 74 percent of which were below the Federal Poverty Line. Giving to Goodwill is also good for the environment. Last year Seattle Goodwill recycled over 60 million pounds of donations that otherwise might have ended up in landfills.

So clean up your basements, organize your garages and straighten your closets. It’s time to bring your treasures to the donation drive at Hazel Wolf K-8 along 12th Ave NE on Sunday April 24, 2022 from 2 pm to 5 pm.
