Pre-Purchase Your Tickets for Family Fun Night NOW!!!

Pre-purchase tickets for concessions, game booths, and teacher raffles via PayPal and skip those long lines!

Tickets to FFN activities will be online this year and you may pick up your tickets at Will Call on October 26. All games, activities, and food/drink concessions may be purchased with tickets only. Most items or games will cost between 2-5 tickets.

Price:
Concession/Game Tickets: 5 tickets for $5, 10 tickets for $10, and 25 tickets for $20.
Teacher Raffle Tickets: $5 per ticket or 5 tickets for $20.
In the Shopping Cart page you can specify the quantity of each item you are purchasing.

Children and families may use tickets to purchase concessions (such as hot dogs, candy, snacks), cotton candy, popcorn, drinks, baked goods from Raise the Bar. Carnival game/activity booths this year include Balloon Artists, Face Painters, Game Trucks, Carnival Games with Prizes, Stilt Walkers, DJ and more!!

Based on past experience, 25-40 tickets per child is probably enough for a fun afternoon. You will also be able to buy more tickets onsite.

What are Teacher Raffle Tickets? Our wonderful Vista Verde teachers and staff have generously donated special experiences to the lucky winners in each grade (grades K-5). A few special winners will also get to be Principal For A Day or have lunch with our Assistant Principal. Each student in K-5 will receive one free raffle ticket to enter the raffle, but buying more tickets means more chances to win! Past examples of teacher raffle prizes include a Lunch Date at Ruby’s Diner and a Book from our Kindergarten Team or Popcorn, Popsicles, and Pictionary! with our Third Grade Team. More information about teacher raffle prizes to come!

Keep your PayPal receipt. You can pick up your pre-purchased tickets at our Will Call table on October 26 starting at 3:15 PM. The event is from 3:30-6:30PM.
Thank you for supporting the Vista Verde PTA!
