Holy moly, did the fundraiser work! Come Friday, we went around to each school and collected the jugs of money. For the intermediate we asked who the individual winner was, which happened to be Mr. Nicholson. We kept each schools' jugs separate so we could get a clear winner. We got to the bank and they took the money to count. They deposited the money and gave us a check. The check was for $2,124.65! We surpassed our goal by over $1000. Brandywine did their own fundraiser and gave us a check for $160. The high school didn't produce any money, but we chalk that up to lack of communication. The high schoolers didn't seem to know what the jugs were for.
As for the pizzas, Mr. Hercamp said the school corporation would be able to pay for all of the pizzas. Mama Nita's even gave them a discount. We ordered 2 cheese and 2 pepperoni pizzas for each class. It totaled about 40 pizzas. We had the help off some friends in study hall that could deliver the pizzas for us. They picked up all except for one class's pizzas the week after the fundraiser ended and took them to each school. The one class had to wait till next week in order to have their party. We did not provide drinks and plates to the school.

Finally, the week has come to put our project into action. We had a plan to just give the pizza party to one class for each elementary school, but all of the group has sports to attend to so we are going with the winning grade for each school. Brandywine has their own fundraiser, so they will the money they made on their own to us. For both the intermediate and junior high schools, we have the school produce one classroom in the entire school as the winner. The junior high school has their own incentive and doesn't need a pizza party. The intermediate weighed each classrooms total which is very flawed, but they insisted on doing it. The high school has jugs in lunch for each grade level. The class with highest amount of cash will earn points towards spirit week. We will pick up all of the jugs Friday and take them to the First Merchant Bank off of 52 for them to count. All we can do now is sit and wait for all of the money to be collected.
