Tiger Buck Store Opens September 2024
The Tiger Buck store successfully opened in September. The children and staff were excited to see us and lots of “Tiger bucks” were spent. Our next dates are October 30th and 31st. I am in need of volunteers to help out. The schedule is 8:15 to 11 am and 11 am to 1:15 pm. I need 2 people per shift. I will have the sign- up sheets at the meeting. There are no store hours in November and the December dates are the 19th and 20th.
With the holidays quickly approaching I will gladly accept any toys, games and potential gifts for mom and dad - we cannot take any earrings, though. And, of course, your plastic bags are always needed. I sincerely thank each of you for your donations and consideration for the students at Plantation Elementary. Their enthusiasm is contagious and what a delight. Thanks again.

We are back open at Plantation Elementary School
After a couple of years hiatus due to COVID, the Tiger Buck Store has finally been opened again. Starting in November 2023, the school allowed the Plantation Woman's Club to support the Tiger Buck Store program for the children. The store will be spearheaded by a new person, Shirley Wiggin. Judy McLeod was the lead on this project since its creation many years ago. Thank you Judy for all your hard work and efforts to help the children for all of those years. Welcome Shirley to your new volunteer position. We know you will be an amazing addition to the program. Shirley is sitting in the picture below.

Thank you everyone for your generous donations at the Holiday Luncheon for the Tiger Buck Store. The table was filled with wonderful and thoughtful gifts.
The students were so excited to come to the store in December and they bought gifts for family and friends, and also for themselves.
They had been saving their Tiger Bucks, so many left with bags of goodies and big smiles - giving us many thank you hugs. Our club is greatly appreciated at Plantation Elementary School!

Plantation Elementary School - Tiger Bucks
October - 2018
It was a pleasure to have Mr. Vinson Jones, the magnet coordinator at Plantation Elementary School, come to our luncheon and meeting in October.
He expressed the school’s gratitude for all the work our club does at the school in the Tiger Buck Store. He acknowledged the donations and time we put in at the store, and also mentioned how much this incentive helps the teachers and students to do their best. He also presented us with a certificate from the school.
The Tiger Buck Store will be open November 12th and 19th, from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm.
This year at our Holiday Luncheon (December 11th), we will have our toy drive again. The children always look forward to everything we bring for them to “buy” in the store. If you can donate a small unwrapped toy and bring it the luncheon, it would be very appreciated. There will be more info in the next newsletter.
Thanks again for all your donations and for the volunteers at the store.

TIGER BUCKS PROJECT
Councilman Jerry Fadgen visited our Tiger Buck store and was able to see all the wonderful things we do for Plantation Elementary School. He was impressed with the program and the students reaction, and the children loved him.
One Tiger Dollar for you…. One for you… And one fooor YOU!
The Plantation Woman’s Club has created an incentive program for the children of Plantation Elementary School.
This program lead by Judy McLeod allows students to earn Tiger Dollars for being in class, resolving a conflict, demonstrating exemplary behavior, extra efforts in projects, promoting anti-bullying and any additional positive behaviors that the teachers feel rewards are deserved.
The students then bring their bucks to the Tiger Buck Store and can purchase items that have been supplied by the Plantation Woman’s Club. These items grow in size from something small and cute to as large as a bicycle.
Volunteers donate hours Monday, Wednesday or Friday mornings during school hours. We count and record Tiger Bucks for each student under a bank register. We help students to make deposits, purchases and review balances similar to a bank teller. This additional bonus of “learned banking” also helps students in developing lifelong skills with future checking and savings accounts.
One child is already saving for “the bicycle"! Which only needs 100 Tiger Bucks to obtain. Every volunteer finds it to be a rewarding value and much appreciated by the school.
