Founder's Day is Coming Soon

The absolute most fun event of Grizzly Flats' year is just around the corner! Founder's Day will be held on Sunday, June 7th, at the Grizzly Flats Fire Station from noon until 5pm. This day celebrates the founding of our town and is set to be the best one ever! Featured will be live music, food, games for the kids, vendors, silent auctions, raffles, a gold panning contest, the Grizzly Flats jail, historical photography, a cake walk, a bake sale, a petting zoo, pony rides for kids and lots, lots more. Founder's Day is a fund-raising event for the Grizzly Flats Organization to Reunite Community & Education (G FORCE). G FORCE is a non-profit, community benefit corporation that supports Grizzly Flats and its residents. Due to the budget cutbacks our school district is experiencing, a large percentage of our proceeds from this year's Founder's Day will be donated to Grizzly Pines Elementary School.

G FORCE very much needs donations of baked goods, items suitable for raffles or silent auctions and volunteers to help out the day of the event. We also are in desperate needs of pop up canopies to provide shade for our various events. They will be returned to you in the same condition in which they were donated.

Grizzly Pines Needs Your Help!

Grizzly Pines School is asking the community and particularly the parents of Grizzly Pines students to help with the annual Burger Night Bake Sale this year. Funds generated by the Bake Sale go toward necessary classroom supplies and extracurricular classes for the students.

The school needs donations of baked goods each week. These items may be dropped off between 5:30-6:30 at the Grizzly Pines table at the fire station each week. They should be pre-packaged/wrapped.

We also need trustworthy people to help man the bake sale table each week. If you are able to help, please contact Robin Kelley at rkelley@pioneer.k12.ca.us.

Plastic Bag Recycling

Grizzly Pines School is still collecting plastic shopping bags as a fund raiser. The school gets $5.00 for every 60 gallon bag of bags we take to Wal*Mart. Any shopping bag a store puts your purchases into, except black, is accepted. Produce bags are not accepted. Bring your recycle to the school between 8:00 and 4:00 any day. Thanks for supporting education!
