Thanks to all who supported the Scarecrow Fundraiser, it has been a great success and fun too. We love seeing all the original ideas and costumes. Keep the originality coming. There are still about four left, let’s fill up the fence!
FALL SOCIAL
Thanks to all who came up to the fall social at Reef and Barrel. Always nice to see everyone. There were many great silent auction baskets. Special shout out to Cate Leonardis for all the hard work that went into organizing the event.
SCARECROW FUNDRAISER-Only a few Left!
The Sea Girt PTO has been selling Scarecrows this year through the PTO Website. There are a few scarecrows left for $25.00. We will deliver to your door for you to decorate. We ask that each family and others in the community purchase one and dress or decorate it in the style of your choice. It has been great to see the creativity and how each family decorates their scarecrow in traditional and nontraditional outfits. They are all currently displayed on the Bell Place fence line. The scarecrow purchase is available online NOW at https://www.seagirtpto.com/shop/halloween-scarecrow/ . Please continue to support the efforts of the Sea Girt PTO and take part in this fun event. Make the Halloween Parade extra special this year and FILL THE FENCE LINE WITH ORIGINAL SCARECROWS!
SEA GIRT ARTISAN MARKET-AD REQUEST
This year the AD Journal/Market Guide for the Sea Girt Artisan Market will be opened up to families and well wishers in addition to businesses. We already have received a great response. If you are looking to send a simple holiday message, support the SGES and PTO or just make a personal ad for your student please follow this link https://www.seagirtpto.com/shop/artisan-market-ad/. You can personalize it with your students artwork of special message. Let’s make this years ad book better than ever. The proceeds from the AD Journal/Market Guide will go toward the mission of the PTO. Any questions please reach out to Ally Stevens or any of the PTO Board members. We look forward to a successful AD Journal with your anticipated support!
SEA GIRT ARTISAN MARKET-COMMUNITY REQUEST
The Sea Girt Artisan Market is almost full and ready for another great show. Each year we have baskets and a couple of large donated items. The baskets and the large items not only bring people from afar but also are a large revenue generator for the PTO Artisan Market.
Each class will actually put together a basket for the market and you should have received the email regarding this. We have had a great response from the classes and professionals in the community so far. Keep up the great work!
We are appealing to the community at large and looking for donated or at cost large ticket items. Some prior examples are bicycles, surfboards, game tickets, boat rides, rented house, etc. If you or someone you know is willing to donate to this cause and the single biggest revenue generator for the PTO, please reach out to either myself Leanne Hoffmann at lrh@atlanticconsultingengineers.com or Mariam Shariati at mariam.shariati@gmail.com. The PTO really appreciates your continued support.
If you are interested in volunteering for this event please contact any one of the PTO Board Members.

The PTO thanks all the families for their continued support in moving forward all the activities and fundraisers throughout the year. Without the support of the administration, faculty, staff and families we could not meet our goals and carry forward our mission.
The PTO utilizes digital channels to help enhance our communication. Here are the many ways you can keep up with PTO activities:
- The weekly newsletters (you’re reading it!)
