BOTTLE DRIVE ** VOLUNTEERS NEEDED **
Our first bottle drive of the school year is quickly approaching. Please ask you friends, neighbours, co-workers and check your recycling - every bottle counts! A complete list of acceptable returnable empties can be found HERE. Last year we made just shy of $2500 with our bottle drives. All of the funds raised go towards new opportunities for our children!
We are still in need of 13 volunteers. Students accompanied by adults are welcome to volunteer as well. If we do not have enough volunteers, the bottle drive will be cancelled. Volunteer shifts are 2hrs each with lots of time options available. A great way to support the school, meet new people, and have some fun at the same time.
DATE: Sunday September 18th, 2022
TIME: 10:00am-2:00pm
LOCATION: Prospect Lake Community Hall **NOT the School**
