Ed Mack Posted December 24, 2015 Author Posted December 24, 2015 One member (I will keep them anonymous unless they want me to post their name) offered a new CITY train set for a signed copy of our book and I gladly agreed. 1 Quote
jbacunn Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Happy to support the Macks' any way I can. It's the least we can do after all they do for us...and we can win some cool sets! 2 Quote
Ed Mack Posted December 25, 2015 Author Posted December 25, 2015 Merry Christmas. I'm looking for a Christmas miracle here. Anything would be appreciated. 1 Quote
feelo2424 Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 Purchased my tickets, love supporting this cause. My kids have gone to a similar school here in Orlando so I understand the value of such a program. Hope they reach their goal for January. 1 Quote

Like I have said before and will say again, St. Paul School is worth the fight and we appreciate all the support. If more active members would buy one just $10.00 raffle ticket, we could make a huge dent in the deficit. Quote
Ed Mack Posted December 27, 2015 Author Posted December 27, 2015 Here is an article about the school... http://www.burlingtoncountytimes.com/tabs/best-of-burlington/for-over-years-saint-paul-has-made-learning-fun/article_0f494376-e157-5daf-8620-ab907e707b4c.html 1 Quote
Elkkthunder Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 Anyway to keep track of which tickets people have bought more of to know which might have the better odds to win Quote
Jeff Mack Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 Wouldn't knowing that skew everything? 2 Quote
TCNJLions Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 Thank you all for supporting the Keep St. Paul Strong - Lego Raffle! Our son is only 3-years old and attends St. Paul School. He can now write his numbers and color in the lines! Everyday we witness his growth and it is amazing. We attribute his successes in no small part to his strong teachers and the small class size at St. Paul's. Our family would sorely miss the school if we can not raise the money this year. Thanks again for the support. 4 Quote

We will be adding a few more sets tomorrow. Quote

LisaH Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Hey Ed! --- This raffle is wonderful and will perform miracles---- with the help of social media ! St. Paul School is truly a blessing and a wonderful place for children to grow and learn. I have 4 children, ages 21, 18, 13 and 9. My 2 oldest have graduated from St. Paul School and my third child is currently in the 8th grade and set to graduate this year--in fact she is in the video that is posted on your blog!! My youngest is in 3rd grade and my husband is an alumni as well. We have strong roots in this school lol! I have seen many changes at St. Paul School ......as well as in the world since my oldest daughter's first day there. St. Paul offers safety and top notch education. The teachers here really care about how the students are doing academically as well as emotionally. These days that is so important to kids.....especially in middle school. Though they may have BiG attitudes, they are still children inside. Every day the kids, the parents, the teachers , the administration.... all have a chance to interact together. And more importantly .... all are welcome to do that. Not every school can say that. It takes a village to raise a child .... there is no better "village" than St. Paul School! My older girls have gone on to graduate from Notre Dame High School (Catholic High School) in Lawrenceville and both excelled in honors and AP classes. My oldest was inducted in the National Honor Society at the Collegiate level and currently has a degree in Biology. My second daughter is currently a freshman at Rowan University and majoring in Chemical Engineering. She has received an academic scholarship. My 8th grader is in the National Junior Honor Society and has participated and placed in many math and academic competitions. She will take the SAT and the ACT in the spring as a "warm-up" before high school. My youngest is in 3rd grade but can write in cursive (have a signature!), read at a much higher level and is halfway learning division. All of this has been provided through the foundation that they received at St. Paul School--- ST. PAUL STRONG!! 3 Quote
