TW Committees

We are a community that is supported by its volunteers.

Our PTA is completely dependent upon our generous and tireless volunteers to plan and run all our programs and events. We invite you to get involved by donating your time and talents to help. New ideas and creativity are always welcome! Whether you want to organize the program/event (Chair), join a committee, or simply lend a hand at one event, the amount of time you choose to commit is up to you.

If you are interested in volunteering at any of the events listed, please contact the committee chair(s) by clicking on their names for their email address. If the Chair's name is not linked to their contact or the position is listed as OPEN or if you have any questions, contact the your PTA President, Tracy Hugunin OR fill out the form on the right side of the page.

Thank you in advance for your time and willingness to help. Your generosity makes an impact at Trailwood!

aUCTION COMMITTEE

Chair(s): Victoria Savich

The Trailwood Auction is our largest fundraising event of the year. The auction funds over 50 programs to enrich the educational experience of our students and provide support for Trailwood staff. Proceeds support cultural arts programs, school field trips, teacher stipends, community events, and enhanced learning experiences throughout the year. It truly takes a village to pull this event off year after year.

Auction Art

Chair(s): Lauren Wilson, Cheyenna Starkovich

Auction Art Committee works in conjunction with the Auction Committee; however, student's artwork and class art is an incredibly vital part of the Auction as a whole. This committee works closely with Mrs. Schwab and ALL of the students to help create the amazing masterpieces which can be purchased at the Auction. If you are creative and enjoy seeing masterpieces come together, this committee is for you!

Babysitting

Chair(s): Jennifer Pontier

We know what you must be thinking..."BABYSITTING?!" During some school functions and meetings, this committee helps to organize care for your littles so you can focus. This committee is a great help to the families in our community for these TW events; however, they are not available for personal babysitting needs.

Birthday Book Club K-2

Chair(s): Cheyenna Starkovich

Here at Trailwood, we have a special birthday tradition involving books. Each student will have the opportunity to select a new book in honor of their birthday. The student's name and the school year will be noted on the nameplate inside the book and will become a permanent part of the library collection. The PTA generously provides a treat or treasure of some kind for the entire class that the student will get to pass out. This means no baking or buying cupcakes to bring to school! This committee is responsible for handling the correspondence with families and keep teachers and the librarian in the loop.

Book Fair

Chair(s): Lori Tritsch and Rachel Crabb

The chair(s) for this committee relies on volunteers to help for this twice annually held book fairs for setup, break down and sales during Book Fair week. Volunteers sign up in shifts.
