IT’S TIME TO GO “APE” FOR PANSIES AND POINSETTIAS!!!

The senior class of Klein High School is already making plans for APE 2013, the annual After Prom Extravaganza, an alcohol/drug free all-night party for seniors and their guests held at KHS following the prom.

Our major fundraiser is the sale of pansies and poinsettias. Get an early start on your fall flowerbeds and holiday decorating by ordering your flowers now! You can also support the seniors by purchasing plants for your place of business, or for gifts for your employees and/or clients.

Pansies are 4” round Majestic Giants in a variety of colors with 12 plants per flat. They will be delivered in mid-October. Poinsettias are available in red or white, in 6” pots with decorative covers and will be delivered in early December.

ORDER NOW from a senior in your neighborhood or online at www.kleinape.com.

You may also download a form from the website and mail your order with payment to either Nancy Evans or Marla Bass.

If you have questions, please contact: Nancy Evans 281-655-8434 nevans003@aol.com Marla Bass 713-412-8501 marlabass123@yahoo.com
