From Mr. Kramer... School Fundraiser I have been asked by several people whether we are doing the Discount Card Fundraiser again this year. Yes, we will be doing the Fundraiser again this year. At the present time I have confirmed participation from 13 local business. I am still waiting for confirmation from 4 other businesses and 3 businesses have declined to participate this year. As soon as I can get confirmation from the other businesses and get at least one more new business to participate this year we can kick-off this activity. I have some special incentives to offer this year and I will share these with everyone as we get closer to the kick-off. Stay tuned!
