CRAFT FAIR (WE NEED HELP!!)
The Plainfield Craft Show is quickly approaching (10/26-10/27) and we need your help! This is a HUGE Fundraiser for all the PSD202 Band Programs – our band made over $10,000 last year. We can only receive our share of the funds if we provide our fair share of volunteers.
We know it’s a busy weekend. If you’re not attending the Friday Football game or the competition at University of Illinois, please consider signing up to help on Friday evening or Saturday. Friends & Family of the band can help. High School students outside of the band program can sign up and earn service hours for NHS, etc.
Please review the attached Sign Up Genius & help where you can! Thank you in advance for your support!!
