CLIP BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION!
Timber Trail receives 10 cents for every Box Top submitted! Last year, we raised over $1500 for our school, just by clipping Box Tops.  We will be collecting Box Tops on October 24th and again on  February 20th.  The classroom that has collected the most Box Tops, wins a pizza party! Keep on clipping!
