Wolftrap Under the Stars is one of the most memorable nights of the year! Join the PTA, the Wolftrap Staff, and all our wonderful Wolftrap families for a night of FUN!

Come see us at the PTA tent to join the PTA, grab an order form for Spirit wear, and learn more about getting involved with all our wonderful programs. More details below!

What to Expect and How to get involved

Want to volunteer? Please go to our signup genius!

There are roles for middle schoolers who need volunteer hours, so spread the word to your Wolftrap alumni! We also need parents who can monitor our stations for short periods of time. 

Get Ready for FUN!

There are so many things for the kids to do on the big field including:

Two Smooth Dudes: Salads, wraps, and tater tots. Drool!

KBBQ Box: Korean-fusion cuisine, Bulgogi, Dumplings, Chicken Wings, Teriyaki and more.

Ben & Jerry’s Vienna:  Stop by the middle of the field and grab a simple, no-frills, dish of ice cream. The perfect cold treat for a nice evening.

 

Water/Soda: All this fun activity can make Wolftrap families thirsty; the PTA will have water and sodas for sale for $1 a bottle (cash preferred) at the PTA tent at the top of the playground. 

What to Bring: 

  • Cash for water/soda purchases and to expedite food truck orders
  • Picnic blanket or folding chair to set up a meeting / eating place on the field
