Madison Elementary School in Everett, WA has been working for nearly a year to earn money to build a new playground.

The new playground will be built in memory of Val Dede, a teacher at Madison Elementary for 24 years and in the Everett School District for 42 years. Dede passed away just three days after school ended last June. As a final fundraiser, supporters are holding a raffle thru next Thursday, March 29th, to meet their financial goal. There are 76 different items in the raffle and anyone  is welcome to bid. Here’s a link to see all of the auction items. Please bid early and often.
