PARENT SECTION

(NEW) URGENT - SENIOR PARTY VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
While we highly encourage the volunteers to be parents of Seniors,  parents of Juniors are also welcome to sign up! The Senior Party only works when parents volunteer to help plan and run the party. Thank you to those of you who have volunteered!!!   We greatly appreciate it.  We are in CRITICAL need of more volunteers,  specifically:  Fundraising (2 people or more) & Prizes & Donations (2 people).  Both of these efforts have a lot of groundwork laid from previous years,  they are a matter of someone running with the information.  If we don’t get volunteers for the Fundraising, we are not going to have the funds necessary to have the party!!  Please click here EVHS Committee Volunteer Sign Up to access the volunteer web site.  You can also contact the executive committee chairs (Cassi Nelson & Melanie Vincent) via the Senior Party email address party@eastviewseniorparty.org for more information.   Our next meeting is Wednesday, November 13th at 6:00 in the Staff Dining room located at the far east end of the commons, on the left.
