Winlaw Elementary students are bursting with excitement, planning and preparing for the school’s annual Spring Fling Fundraiser. This important community event is happening at the school on Saturday, May 23, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and will feature a barbecue and bake sale, kids games, face painting, an auction, various raffles and a plant and craft sale.
Don’t miss the opportunity to bid on a number of fantastic auction items, generously donated by our community artisans and local businesses.
