Dear Friends, bienvenidos!
We are thrilled to welcome you to Spring Fling 2025: Palm Royale. This year ’ s celebration is sold out, which hasn’t happened for nine years! This evening is about coming together as a community, having fun, and most importantly, raising crucial funds for our elementary schools: Beach, Havens, and Wildwood
This year, we proudly stepped up to co-chair Spring Fling because we believe deeply in the importance of supporting our public schools California’s public education funding simply isn’t enough, and we are passionate about giving our kids the vibrant, well-rounded school experience they deserve
We knew this was our district’s largest elementary school fundraiser, and we set out to make it unforgettable. And we did! Thanks to parent sponsorships of over $72,000!, 18+ amazing Parent Theme Parties, and an auction full of one-of-a-kind items and experiences, we ’ re poised to make a meaningful difference.
This year, our fundraising will directly support the expansion of visual and performing arts programs and will help maintain essential counseling services at all three elementary schools. Every paddle raise, silent bid, and straight donation brings us closer to this goal.
We’re beyond grateful to the incredible volunteers who poured their hearts into this event, from planning parties and securing sponsorships, to arranging flowers, filming videos, and promoting Spring Fling across the community And to the amazing group of women from PEF with their experience and knowledge, they have guided us every step of the way and helped make this a truly successful season
So flip through your auction catalog, raise those paddles, and get your bids ready. It’s time to celebrate, Palm Royale style!
With love and gratitude,
Monika & Heidi
2025 Spring Fling Co-Chairs

Fund-a-Need
Help our students find their voices and shine.
This year ’ s Fund-a-Need will support the expansion of visual and performing arts programs and maintain elementary counseling at all three elementary schools.
Our district leadership and teachers are committed to building upon the strong foundations already in place and enhance opportunities for all students to explore, express, and grow through the arts. Early exposure to the arts is not just about painting pictures or performing on stage. It’s about developing creativity, confidence, collaboration, and critical thinking -- skills that will serve students in every academic subject and throughout their lives. Studies consistently show that children involved in arts education are more engaged in school, perform better academically, and show greater empathy and emotional resilience. The arts expand a child’s world. Through visual art, music, dance, and drama, students gain tools for self-expression, learn to appreciate different cultures and perspectives, and find new meaning in the world around them
This year ’ s Spring Fling season will raise funds for essential equipment and resources that bring these experiences to life That includes ceramics equipment, theater production licensing, musical instruments and sheet music, and the creation of an instrument repair fund to ensure instruments stay in shape
Art feeds the soul, and our elementary school counselors protect the heart. On-site mental health counseling provides support for our children as they navigate big feelings, develop self-awareness and self-management, and learn to connect with and show empathy toward their peers.
Your donation will help safeguard our counseling programs at Beach, Havens, and Wildwood, and will provide our children with access to a rich and inspiring arts education. Let’s give our kids the chance to explore their talents, find their voices, and shine.
Raise your paddle. It’s for the kids

Oh
Sorry,
I Have Plans That Day
“Oh sorry, I have plans that day” that’s what you’ll be telling the soccer carpool, birthday parties, and playdates. Because you do have plans. Very important ones. For the kids, of course… obviously. You paid for it, so you have to go. But what exactly is it?
It’s a You day.
Think: a warm pool, a hot tub, backyard yoga, dreamy salads, refreshing (or delightfully tipsy) beverages. Bring a book and actually read it. Bring your AirPods and catch up on your favorite podcast while soaking up the sun. Get two tickets and bring your best friend curl up on the couch and really catch up. This is a dream afternoon: calm, quiet, and totally on your terms. No small talk required. No kids.
Date: Saturday, September 20
Time: 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM
