2015 BACK-TO-SCHOOL CONFERENCE PACKET ORDERS – CONFERENCE VOUCHER REFERRALS INSTRUCTION With a conference referral, each student will receive a back-pack or book-bag filled with basic school supplies by grade-level and a $15.00 gift card to Payless Shoes (Shoe cards will be given to the parent or conference member) *** CONFERENCE GROUP ORDERS – INSTRUCTION Group orders are for Conferences that order back-packs for the families they serve. It is the Conference responsibility to pick up their order and make their own arrangements to deliver the backpacks to their families. (Many arrange distribution from their own parish) The Conference Group Order Form is posted on the website. Please fill out the form in its entirety. Mail or drop off the Conference Group Oder Form at the Council office or the Store courtesy counter on or before August 7. CONFERENCE VOUCHER FORM REFERRALS – INSTRUCTION Store Voucher forms are used for families who will be picking up their own supplies at St. William on August 13 or 14th. The standard Store Voucher Form is used ***Do not include requests for other merchandise on the Voucher Back-to-School referral Specify ‘Back-to-School’ Name of Conference Conference member signature Fill in family full name, address and phone number List each child – children name, GENDER and grade level (Very important!) Mail or drop off the original Back-to-School Voucher Form to the Waukesha Council office or Store (818 W. Sunset Dr.) on or before August 7. IMPORTANT! Give a copy of the Voucher form to the parent and instruct them to present it at the time of pick up. This saves a tremendous amount of time the day of distribution. Please note, if we do not have a record of the Conference Voucher referral, the patron will not be able to receive a back pack. We will make note and if there are any backpacks left over we will contact them. A data base will be created listing all conference referrals. Only those who are referred by a conference and submitted to the Council office by August 7th can be guaranteed to receive school supplies, a backpack or book-bag and a shoe gift card. This is necessary due to the time involved to purchase supplies not donated, the grade level packet preparation and timely receipt of Payless shoe gift cards.
