Station and Class Booth Signups…
WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!
FPAC stations and class booths still have slots available.  FPAC stations cannot run well if we don't have volunteers to help.  Class booths will be CLOSED if there is not a volunteer to man the station.  Many time slots are only 30 minutes long.  Is there any reason why you couldn't give 30 minutes of your time while your child(ren) enjoy playing at the Fall Festival?
ALSO- if you have a teen who would love to earn service hours, we would love to have his or her help!  Please sign them up for a shift or 10 (hahaha!) and Linda will sign their form for a job well done!  We could really use the help at concessions... and book fair… and ticket sales… and set up/clean up…
