Hillcrest Parents and Patrons,
Many of the Hillcrest Elementary students in grades 2-5 are selling donation tickets on a Stevens 301 20Ga, 3” Single-Shot Turkey Shotgun. We are going to be selling these donation tickets to help purchase intramural basketball t-shirts and new pee wee basketball uniforms for next year. Some background information; we purchase intramural t-shirts every year, free of charge to the students. Also, it has been eight (8) years since we last purchased pee wee basketball uniforms, so it’s past time for new ones. Each ticket is $5 each. If you would like to purchase a ticket, and do not have access to any of the students selling them, you may come buy the Hillcrest Elementary Office (Library) anytime during normal business hours next week. Ticket sales will end on Monday, May 16th. We will draw a winner on Wednesday, May 18th.
The winner must be 18 years old, pick up the shot gun at the Farm Service store in Walnut Ridge, and pass a Federal Background check when you pick it up.
The shotgun is being donated by Mr. Will Roberts (Mrs. Deanna’s husband); if you see him, or her, please thank them for their donation!
If you have any questions, you may call me at (870) 376-5416 or email me at shawn.rose@eagles1.k12.ar.us

Hillcrest Elementary Principal
