HIDDEN VALLEY LAKE, Calif. – Coyote Valley Elementary PTO is still in the process of raising funds for new playgrounds.

The “Buy A Brick” fundraiser is still running with plans to install the brick display in the spring of 2013. There’s still time to purchase your brick.

Several bricks have already been purchased by local families, businesses and various groups.

The school is nearly halfway to its goal of $100,000 that is needed to purchase and install the desperately needed new playgrounds.

Coyote Valley PTO is working very hard with various other fundraisers to help reach their goal.

Coyote Valley recently held its 10th annual Jog-A-Thon with the proceeds of nearly $11,000 going toward the playgrounds as well as cookie dough sales and penny wars.  

For those that would like to make a monetary contribution in any amount, the PTO has a donation site set up with Ever Ribbon.

Ever Ribbon is a Web site set up with the idea of helping various people and organizations with their fundraising efforts.

If you would like to make a donation, please go www.everribbon.com/ribbon/view/8088 . You can read our story, see a picture of the current play structure and make a secure online donation toward our cause.

Commemorative bricks can be purchased year-round by individuals, families(can be multiple families per brick), businesses, alumni, groups, teams, etc. and they also make a great gift. All buyers will receive a certificate with their brick information.

Costs range from $100 for a 4-inch by 8-inch brick, to $250 for an 8-inch by 8-inch brick, and up to $500 for an 8-inch by 8-inch brick that also includes the engraving of a company logo or graphic along with two lines of text.

This will be an ongoing fundraiser with a goal of ultimately raising $100,000.  

The first phase of bricks is scheduled to be laid in the Spring of 2013 near the front office, in an area of high traffic and plenty of visibility for all to see and enjoy.
