The Fellows PTO invites all Fellows families to celebrate a great year and our talented students at the Fellows Fair annually in May at Fellows Elementary!

Join us for food, face-painting, games, raffle prizes, Kona Ice, student exhibits, the student talent show and more on May 16th, 2025 from 5:30-8:00pm!

Volunteer

Every year, close to 200 Fellows parents, friends and middle/high school siblings and alumni gather to make this the best event possible! If you have time on Fair Day we could use your help – shifts are 1 hour long.

Raffle Tickets & Prizes

Students are invited to support our school by selling $1 raffle tickets. Ticket requests will be sent home in backpacks. We do NOT encourage students to sell door-to-door by themselves. Money for raffle tickets should be turned in to the front lobby and tickets can be picked up at the fair.

Prizes are donated by Fellows families and local businesses. Learn how you can donate to your child’s grade level raffle basket.

Raffle tickets are available for purchase in the weeks before the Fair and will also be available for purchase at the Fair from 5:30 to 7 PM. Prizes will be drawn around 7:00 and you need not be present to win.

Games

Games are at the heart of the fair and include classics such as Plinko, Pop Toss, and Color Wheel! Wristbands allow a person to play unlimited games (no tickets necessary). Games will cost 2-4 tickets to play.

Early ordered Advanced Purchase wristbands will be sent home with students. Undelivered wristbands will be available for pick up at the Wristband & Ticket booth starting at 5:30pm at the Fair.

Students have the chance to win a prize at each game. PTO has purchased a number of kid-approved novelty items as prizes for games.

In addition, we greatly appreciate donations of 2-liter bottles of pop and new or gently used 3rd-5th grade chapter books in the Fellows lobby starting the Monday before the Fair.

Talent Show

Encourage your stage stars to sing, dance, tell jokes, read poetry, do magic tricks, play an instrument, perform gymnastics or share another special skill! 5th graders are also invited to host a portion of the talent show. This is a show, not a competition. All participants will receive a ribbon.
