Rent the Spirit Rock for a week!
100% of proceeds are used for Pine Island schools.

There are two rocks available to rent - one at the K-4, one at the 5-12.
What is a Spirit Rock?
Parents, Students & Staff have the opportunity to "Rent the Rock" to recognize a student’s birthday, show school spirit, thank or recognize a teacher or staff member, congratulatory events, etc. It is a great way to spread positive messages and increase excitement in our community!
How can I rent the rock?
It’s simple, just go to the “Book Now” tab at the top of our Facebook Home page (Pine Island Spirit Rock) and reserve the actual date you want. You may begin painting at 12pm on Sunday of your reservation.
