My Project

My school is Pre-K through High School and I am in charge of a lot of the after school events such as Fall Fest, Cookies with Santa, Spring Fling, Field Day, and sporting events. This project will help give students a full experience and make their night magical.

Every event should be captured by a picture.

This project includes multiple backdrops to take pictures with, a back drop stand, a new camera and a portable photo booth. We need to decorate the gym so this project includes fun lights, inflatable blow ups to really get into theme. We are in desperate need of new speakers to listen to all the festive tunes. Lastly, I included fun games and prizes for students to win at the events.
