It's a fundraiser until your friends show up - then it's a PARTY!
 
We could use member support to fill key volunteer positions to set up, tear down and sell tickets at Saturday's fundraiser. Want to make a difference? Please sign up for a volunteer shift!
 
Here are your opportunities, should you choose to accept them:
 
Set up:  Report at 1:00 pm to the Holiday Inn ballroom. Volunteers will be directed to decorate tables and set up the registration and Pick Your Prize table.
 
Staff the event:  Assist with ticket sales for the Pick Your Prize table, sell Heads or Tails beads or provide assistance with event logistics (announcements, traffic, etc) during the event.
 
Tear down:  Volunteer to close the Pick Your Prize table or break down the event. We anticipate that we are going to boogie until the cows go home, or midnight at the very latest.  Pick Your Prize will close at 9:45 pm.
 
To volunteer, please tamra.ward1@gmail.com Your support is welcomed and appreciated.
