Good Morning Birch Lane Families:
It was brought to our attention that our Picture Day photographer, Patken Photography, changed processing companies for their credit card payments, and the new vendor requires the CVV number to process payment. As this change was made after the forms were printed, there was not a space left on the order form for the CVV number.
For anyone whose child went today and paid via credit card, you will receive a phone call from Patken’s office for your CVV number. For anyone whose child is going tomorrow, if you could add the CVV number to the credit card payment area on the order form, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your cooperation!
