You can label the cost, or the Bake Sale volunteers can do so.

Label anything special, such as stuff like gluten-free, includes peanuts, etc.
Where, When, How can I drop off my goods?
On Monday (day before the Bake Sale):
- Drop-off your items at the school front office on Monday during office hours. Be sure to label these that they’re for the PTA bake sale.
On Tuesday morning (day of the Bake Sale):
- Bring your items as early as possible Tuesday morning, preferably between 6am-7:30am. (Most voters in this area vote early).
Coordinate with another parent and deliver your items to them to drop off.
Contact the Bake Sale coordinator if you need to make any special arrangements.
When is the Bake Sale the busiest?
In the morning. However, if the weather is bad, and it’s not a “big” election, business will slow down by 9:30am.
