Carnival Help Needed: Support a Coordinator
Short on time, but still want to help with Carnival? We need parents who can help coordinators complete their responsibilities like organizing prizes, collecting cake-walk donations from curbside or helping organize students and families for the Fun Run--not time consuming tasks, but we need your help all the same! If you are interested in assisting, please contact Andrea Niermeier at 858-382-4609 or Andrea.niermeier@gmail.com
