Wreath sales

Please help our 5th graders out and help sell a Christmas wreath or two to friends and family during our fundraiser.  These are excellent quality and are great holiday decorations.  They smell great too.  Why buy a wreath from a dingy Christmas tree lot when you can help our wonderful children have an excellent 5th grade year?  Thank you!!

Please email keppel5thgrade@gmail.com .if you need extra forms
