Stuff Yourself While Stuffing School Coffers

Plenty of chances to enjoy some good food while doing some good at the same time.

Feeling hungry right about now, aren’t you? Plotting your lunch and dinner forays as you pore over the Novato Patch? Of course you are!

You can support Sinaloa Middle School’s music department by chowing down at Mary’s Pizza Shack anytime on Monday, Dec. 17. Bring the flier with you and 20 percent of the proceeds go to support the cause. That’s for dine-in, take-out and delivery. You can also stock up on the last-minute Christmas gifts by buying Mary’s gift cards; 10 percent of those proceeds go to bring music to the ears of Sinaloa students.
