VOLUNTEER IF YOU DARE! 👻🎃

We're gearing up for our annual Trunk or Treat event on Saturday, October 17th, and we could really use more people to help with food & drink sales, activity support and 50/50 sales.

Each shift is just 1-1.5 hours long - a small time commitment that can make a huge impact on our community event.

This annual fundraiser supports activities and special projects for our Adaire 8th Graders. Rain date is Sunday, 10/18.
