EHS School Enhancement Society Casino Fundraiser
A message from our delightful EHS School Enhancement Society:
We are seeking 36 volunteers for our upcoming casino fundraiser event on December 9 and 10, 2023 at Pure Casino (near the airport). Our last casino event raised $67,000 for Eric Harvie School and supported the purchase of new technology, sports, art, science, and literacy materials as well as numerous special events and learning opportunities for students.
Please come join other parents for a fun night of volunteering. Volunteers get free food and drinks (non-alcoholic) during their shift and it is a great way to meet other parents at the school. No experience is required and you will be provided training when you show up for your shift. To sign up, use the link below:
