Empty Bowls Dinner


I am very excited to tell you about the upcoming Empty Bowls dinner.  This month in character education, students at Three Creeks are learning about community service.  In an effort to get kids involved in giving back to our local community, we will be participating in Empty Bowls.  Empty Bowls is a hunger awareness dinner that will take place on November 28 from 5:15-6:45 p.m. Students in all grades will be creating something for the event, ranging from clay bowls to placemats, to table decorations.  The dinner will include a simple meal of chicken noodle or potato soup and bread. Tickets must be purchased in advance: now through November 16.  Cost is $5 per person or $20 per family of 5. All proceeds will be donated to a local food pantry.  Three Creeks students and their families are invited to come.  Each family who attends will be able to take home one of the handmade bowls as a reminder that there are always empty bowls in our world.   There will be family art activities and music performances during the evening as well.  
  If you wish to buy tickets, please fill out the form that was sent home and emailed through Harmony and send the money to school in an envelope marked “Empty Bowls.”   We hope to see you there.
