SharkFest is the PTA's biggest fundraising event of the year! It cost the PTA money to purchase the food, book the vendors, get the prizes for the raffle, etc. We would LOVE to give as much of the money earned from SharkFest back to the school. One of the best ways to support Shadow Forest, the PTA, and SharkFest is through our Family and Business Sponsorships.
