Interested in helping the PAC?
We’d like to extend a big thank you to everyone who has helped out with various PAC activities this year. It’s because of your effort that we’re able to offer such amazing activities, resources and create such a warm community for our families. Every little job you do makes a huge difference!
Even though it’s still early in the year we invite you to think about some of the opportunities to help next year. PAC elections aren’t until May but this is a great time to start asking questions if there’s a role you think you’d like to fill. We’re especially looking for someone who would like to organize the hot lunch program for next year - it’s helpful to learn the job the year before for a smooth transition. If you’re interested in learning about the position please contact Nina at <span lang="EN" style='font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN;'><u>nina@mrbitter.org</u></span>
