The event is a fundraiser for the school's PTA. In addition to the food, games and rides, parents and other parties can support the school through an auction or by purchasing $5 gallon-sized pots of mums.
The basket auction can be previewed today from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the school's library if you want to eyeball them without children tagging along.
