Trivia Night Is Back: Grab friends and create a team for the annual Trivia Night at St. Charles on Saturday, Nov. 17. If you've never attended this signature event you must try it this year. Loads of fun and laughter and some very tough questions. It's a great way to meet other parents and parishioners while raising money for the school.

Turn In Pizza Lunch Orders By Friday, Nov. 2: The first Pizza Lunch of the school year is Wednesday, Nov. 7.

There will also be a Bake Sale with items priced at 50 cents each. This is a fundraiser for the 8th Grade Class and money earned will go toward graduation expenses and a legacy gift for the school and church. Learn more and complete your order form here. The deadline to order is Friday, Nov. 2.
Volunteers Needed For Lunch: Volunteers are very much needed for lunch duty this week. It certainly helps to have parents assist our lunchroom staff so if you have time for a quick shift this week please sign up here. These are great ways to fulfill your service hours. Moms with younger children are welcome to bring them during their shift. We appreciate your time and effort!
Food & Diaper Drive For Oconomowoc Food Pantry: The 1st Grade Daisy Troop is collecting food and diapers for the Oconomowoc Food Pantry. Please consider supporting this effort.

The food pantry has a particular need for canned fruit and veggies, mac n cheese, canned soup, canned beef stew, canned meat, peanut butter, breakfast cereal, diapers, condiments, crackers, pasta and pasta sauce. If you have any questions please email Lori Borg.
