Bloombox Fundraiser in full swing!

Our BloomBox fundraiser is well underway.  Remember, when you order your fall mums, flowers & décor from BloomBox, they will donate 15% of your purchase amount directly to Conestoga Cross Country.  We are so excited about this fundraiser because it’s an easy way for us to earn money, and all of you have the opportunity to purchase beautiful plants & décor, have it delivered, and support a local business at the same time. You can order items at this link:  www.getblooming.com.  

Please remember that you need to enter our unique code CHSCrossCountry15 into the fundraising code box. 

Our fundraising event runs through October 10th. During this time, you can order as many times as you like, as BloomBox releases new plants & décor each week. 

Head over to www.getblooming.com to see what they have and place your first order!
