The excitement is building! Preparations are underway for the CEC Halloween Gala October 10th!

We are looking for DONATIONS to help make our RAFFLE BASKETS and SILENT AUCTION a success!

For our raffle baskets, we welcome individual items that can be combined with other donations, as well as complete, ready-to-raffle baskets.

For our silent auction, we are looking for higher-value items, experiences, gift certificates, services, or larger themed packages that would be a great fit for bidding.

Every donation, big or small, helps us create exciting raffle and auction options while supporting our school and students. Thank you for helping make this event a success!

All funds raised will support the CEC, a charter school within the School District of Waupaca

Please follow the link below to review the available slots and sign up. Please deliver all donations to the CEC by October 5th. Thank you!

We will have a donation box available in the lobby, and this will be a terrific chance for us to spread the word about the CEC!

Volunteers are key to holding a successful Culver's Share Night. We will need to provide a minimum of 4 volunteers each hour. Volunteers must be 16 or older: 14 to 15 year olds may volunteer with an accompanying adult present to supervise each individual under the age of 16.

Please join the CEC Governance Council in welcoming our two newest members! Barb Conradt and Beanie Hallstrom were unanimously elected to the Governance Council at our Annual Meeting on June 5. Barb is a retired teacher, active community member, experienced board member, and grandparent of a CEC student. Beanie is a doula, business owner, co-founder of a doula collective, and parent of a CEC student. We are grateful for their generosity and commitment to sharing their time, wisdom, and perspectives in support of the CEC mission and our collaborative community. P.S. For a heartwarming experience, ask Barb and Beanie about their reasons for making this commitment the next time you see them.
