The OCS Spirit Store was an idea a couple of moms had to raise money for our school. It has moved from the back of their Suburbans to its current location in "B" building. The clothing and merchandise has moved from plastic tubs to the awesome built-ins that another family donated. From only being open on a random schedule to being open two times every month and having a huge Christmas store.
Last year the Spirit Store profits were used to purchase the fence around the playgound, door security for the elementary building, and a portable sound system for the show choir.
The year before, the store raised approximately $20,000 to buy computers and software for the entire school and renovations for "A" Auditorium.
Your purchases help make great contributions to our school!
We have OCS logo items and great gift ideas for you to do all your shopping here. The store also has a large selection of jewelry, home décor and toys. Our prices range from $.10 for candy to under $3 for many of our toys to men's golf shirts for $35. Our prices are at or below what you will pay elsewhere and profits go back to your child's school.
The next time you see one of these volunteer moms tell her how much you appreciate all the many hours she puts in working, organizing, buying, pricing and having fun in the store. Thanks to:
Thanks to each of you and your kids for coming in and reminding us why we do all this -- because we love OCS and what it stands for. We pray that God will continue to bless our school, teachers and kids.
We are grateful to be a part of this tradition.
Actual store stock will vary throughout the year. |
