The Parent Teacher’s Association hosted its biggest fundraiser of the school year.
Brothers Charles, 9, and Caleb, 8, Slaughter, made their way through the carnival-style games at Ormond Beach Elementary’s Fall Festival in a heartbeat.
They quickly competed against each other in Tic Tac Toe, bowling and ring tosses. Their sibling rivalry helped them to speed through all of the festivals games and attractions.
“It’s to be fun for the families and the kids,” PTA volunteer Kathie Brown said. “It’s also to raise money for the PTA which in turn, goes to the kids.”
Brown said the event’s silent auction is one of the organization’s biggest fundraisers.
“I heard a few of the volunteers say that they’ve already sold more than they planned on,” Brown said. “I’m a part of PTA and I have a daughter that goes here. I really believe in this. It’s a great tie for the family.
The event also included bounce houses, cake walks, a book fair and food donated by Moes. Brown says she loves the school for it’s atmosphere.
“I love the family feel you get here,” Brown said. “There’s a personal connectivity that happens.”
