We have an excellent team in place for our fundraising Afternoon Tea scheduled for April 26 but do need volunteers for day-of-event details like bakers, servers and cleaner uppers.
Our 60th Anniversary Party & Annual Meeting is coming up in May.
We need a few people to meet up soon and organize details.
Our annual Ice Cream Social is coming up in June!
Previous procedures are well documented, but we do need a person (or two) to take the reins on this event.
