What is Superhero Saturday?
Superhero Saturday is Lakeshore’s Spring Carnival where our community comes together to play games, have fun, and celebrate community superheroes!
We’ll have carnival games, crafts, bounce-houses, horses, baby goats, homing pigeons, bee keepers, music, barbecue, cotton candy, popcorn, face painting, dancing, and more!
Students are now earning Community Superhero Bucks in place of Leopard Bucks. These can be used in place of cash at the event!
Tickets are good for all carnival games, activities and food!
$10 for 15 tickets
$20 for 35 tickets
Prizes will be given for winning games, meeting community superheroes, and completing passport books!
Community Superheroes:
Thanks to the community superheroes who will be volunteering their time to visit Lakeshore: SF Department of the Environment, Merced Branch Library, Planet Bee, Maritime Museum Park Ranger, New Conservatory Theatre, SCRAP, SFPD, and more!
We need your help at the event!

Want a Chance to Win AMAZING Raffle Prizes?
The raffle is one of the PTA's three main fundraisers, after the Annual Giving Campaign and auction. We are asking each family to sell at least two booklets of 10 tickets (worth $40 or more). Booklets were sent home last week.
Be sure to sell tickets to your friends, coworkers, and family! Need a sign to post where you're selling? Download and print this sign.
Adults can get more tickets in the office near Ms. Mao’s desk. If you can't stop by, ask a fellow parent to get some for you or contact pta@LakeshoreElementary.org to have more sent home with your child.
Prizes:
This is an easy way to help Lakeshore and a great chance for someone you know to win an Amazon Kindle, 5 Disneyland 1-Day Park Hopper Tickets (valid through 12/20/2020), or 4 Giants lower box seat tickets to a 2019 regular season home game + opportunity for four to watch batting practice from the field before the game.
The top student seller (by total revenue) wins a $25 Target gift card, and the classroom with highest sales (by total revenue) wins pizza party!
How To:
Return envelope with stubs and appropriate dollar amount to wooden raffle box in the office by 3:30pm on Friday, April 26 to be counted toward prizes.
Payment by check is preferred.
If you have sold tickets already, great job! However, don't wait until the last day. Turn them in as you go to make it faster to tally results. Plus, you can see if we counted your packet by checking this website post which will be updated through April 26.
Winners will be drawn at Community Superhero Saturday on April 27 and need not be present to win.
Can you help us count money and tickets? Sign up at bit.ly/ls19raffle.
