We are truly excited about this year’s event and are even more excited that you have committed to assisting us in our Annual Scholarship Fundraiser. Our “Seaux New Orleans, Seaux SMA – Boiling with a Twist” is guaranteed to be an exciting time for family and friends of all ages. The entertainment, food, games and gathering will prove to be one for the books!
But we need you to help us carry the ball across the goal line! As we are sure you are aware, this season’s crawfish crop may present a challenge. However, we are monitoring the crop, including its cost, and will make necessary adjustments to the fundraiser requirements as deemed appropriate. That is, we are looking at options to purchase crawfish through one vendor which will decrease the cost, and/or reducing the amount of required pounds per team. Options are being determined as we continue to watch the crop.
Just know that we are committed to this event as the young ladies of St. Mary’s Academy are dependent upon our efforts. As such, we are asking that you reach out to us to confirm your commitment to participate. Please confirm by Friday, March 1, 2024. All teams must submit their payments by that day. This will be the final day that teams will be considered for participation.
The excitement is in the air and we can’t wait to taste from your pot. The challenge is on and let the “trash talking” commence.
If you have any questions or concerns and if you would like to meet to discuss our plans, feel free to contact us at smaalumnae@gmail.com. Thanking you in advance for your support,
Sincerely,
