Gold Canyon Candle Fundraiser
A few times throughout the year, we love to include our Participants in our fundraising endeavors for our program. This year we are bringing back the fantastic scents of Gold Canyon Candles for a fundraiser that raised $900 last year! 40% of all candles sold gets donated back to OSB and specifically helps to support our monthly field trips and program parties throughout the year! Please consider buying a candle for yourself or asking friends or family members to buy a candle and support OSB! You should have received a packet that was sent home with your adult yesterday that explains all the details. If you did not receive one, email Madison and she will get you a new one. If your not a fan of the old paper and pencil format, you can also order your candles online HERE.
