help needed for Flea Market




Hey Everybody,

It’s time to plan for the Flea Market, June 2-4, 2017.  Please join us to work the 4-H Teens In Action! Booth!!!

Please come out to help with this biggest fundraiser of the season to help offset costs and support our End of Year Fun, 4-H Teen Leadership Retreat and other activities/events for ourselves.  This past September we cleared almost $1,400.
 
At the booth, we sell Pepsi drinks and baked goods.  Pepsi brings us the drinks and sets the price at $1.50 each and we take donations for baked goods.  And each of you is asked to bring baked goods and a cooler (if you can loan for the weekend as we need 10).

For those new to the group, we ask that everyone work at least one shift each day.  We also need moms and dads to help chaperone/supervise the event.  We must have two adults per shift to make the event a go.
 
Click on the link, look over the spreadsheet then email or text Mr. L when you can work.  He’ll update periodically so you can check back since it will be real-time but view only.  You CAN ONLY VIEW the document.
 

Thanks,
Stephanie Covey ~ President
Olivia Ramsey ~ Vice President
