Some of you may remember that Melissa Parker, Sustainability Academy
school foodservice staff member and President of the PTO, died suddenly and
unexpectedly last October, sending shock waves through the ONE community,
Burlington, and beyond. To add to this tragedy, the school district was working
on offering life insurance policies to all foodservice personnel, and yet
Melissa died just days before her policy could be activated. Because of
these unfortunate circumstances, 100% of all funds raised will help support
the Parker kids’ college education.
The tickets come with full weather cancellation protection, which means
that if the game is rained out, the owner of the tickets would be offered the
option of going to another 2010 Red Sox game or on another Milne Travel
bus tour of equal value. Raffle tickets will be sold through June and July.
Checks can be written out to the SA at Barnes PTO and mailed to
Vince Brennan
175 Park Street
Burlington, VT 05401
Your raffle tickets will then be mailed to you, and you do not need to be
present at the raffle drawing to win.
Melissa was a huge Red Sox fan so we are happy to offer this raffle to
honor her passion for the game and her love for the team. Pleas contact
school board member Vince Brennan for more information.
