LOOKING FOR A WAY TO BE INVOLVED IN YOUR
COMMUNITY WITHOUT A MAJOR COMMITMENT?
Do you love having fun? Are you a great party planner? Do you have a special talent
or extra time you want to share with the community?
The Events Commission is looking for your help. Whether you just want to help once
in a while, or want to actually be part of the commission, it’s up to you.
We need people to help in various different positions. Even if you just want to lend an
hour, it would be greatly appreciated.
We do have monthly meetings, but if you just want to help occasionally you don’t
need to attend the meetings.
At our monthly meetings we do all of our planning and brainstorming. We welcome
you to even come and just sit in on the meetings and see what we are about.
Submit your FREE family announcements,
condolences, congratulations, etc.,
to the Administration Office or email

evil.a
