Deal of the Month


It's Ski Swap time!


The Annual Burke Town School PTO Ski Swap happens on November 9th.


It's a great chance to pass on your old, but still in good shape gear to someone and upgrade your own winter gear for the season.


You'll find loads of great deals on skis, poles, boots, helmets, goggles, snowboards, ice skates, equipment bags, outerwear and more for kids and adults.


Clear out those closets and head on over to the school on the 9th to make someone's day with gear you no longer use and make your own day with some new winter toys!
