Belleville Dairy Days Volunteers Needed

Submitted by admin on Wed, 06/22/2016 - 6:37am

I am in charge of the Queens Brunch! HIGH SCHOOL PARENTS AND HIGH SCHOOLERS: I really need some young people to help out and earn volunteer points towards next year’s quota. We are feeding 175 people. I need some help with hauling, carrying stuff between floors, serving, organizing, etc. It is a huge undertaking and many hands and young legs will help tremendously. Friday afternoon we will be cracking eggs for the many scrambled eggs we will be making. The firefighters are pitching in on Saturday to flip pancakes for the breakfast!
