11/27/2017

 
We hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving holiday. With the hustle and bustle of the busy holiday week/weekend, I am re-sending last week's email regarding the upcoming Madrigal Dinner.

Once you've checked everything you'd like to sign up for, click Submit and Sign Up at the very bottom. Enter your first and last name as well as your email address and click Sign Up Now.

As a reminder, this the choral program's largest annual fundraiser. Proceeds from the event benefit the entire choral program. Any and all help is appreciated.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sending on behalf of Mary Richardson, Madrigal Dinner chairperson:

It's Madrigal time of year and we need all choral parents' support of the #1 fundraiser for the choral association! Thanks to those who attended the meeting. All parents can help in many ways..... 


DESSERTS
First, the morning of Saturday, December 9, every family should drop off a dessert to St. Athanasius Church hall (entrance in the back of the church through parking lot) between 10 AM and 12 PM.  They do not have to be homemade, nor plated, & please nothing that needs refrigerated.  (If you want to bring a refrigerated dessert, bring it an hour before when the students report.)

OTHER DONATIONS
In order to keep costs down, we are asking for donations of several items for the dinner as well as for basket raffles. Many food items and paper products are listed on an online sign-up form (as well as several volunteer opportunities).  click here for the online sign-up. Donations can be sent to school with your student and placed in the donation bin in the Choral Room, (except basket of cheer donations), we will be checking daily, since the baskets need made and I'll need to shop for anything we still need.

VOLUNTEERS:
Several parents have already signed up to chair one of the many different things that are needed to make this event a success, thank you! Below is a list of many aspects of the event and the respective chairperson. Many other volunteers are needed and these volunteers slots are also listed on online sign-up.   click here for the online sign-up  Please sign up to help where you can as "many hands make light work."
  • Linda McCann ([email protected]) - Raffle Basket Chair:  Linda needs donations for creating the baskets  If everyone could pick up either a bottle for the baskets of cheer (do not send in to school) and/or scratch lottery tickets for the lottery tree (these can be sent in an envelope and given to Mr. Cloonan).  Also she will need a few volunteers to help set up the basket table and sell the tickets the night of the event.  If you would like to donate an entire basket, you can contact Linda ([email protected]).  Also, if you have empty baskets they can use to make up, those are appreciated also!
  • Admission Sales at Front Door Chair - still needed 2 people:  responsible for collecting admission (tickets $15 adult $10 student) and giving change  

  • Stephanie Tracek ([email protected]) - Drinks Chair:  Stephanie will need a few helpers to sign up to assist in making coffee, lemonade and iced tea and clean up.
  • Jeannette Murray ([email protected]) - Decorations Chair:  This is all hands on deck at 10 AM, Sat., Dec. 9th to transform the church hall into a medieval castle.  The more help, the sooner we can be finished. 
  • Gina Marsden & Angela Arlia (Angela Arlia, [email protected]) - Desserts Chair:  Gina will be there an hour before doors open to begin plating desserts.  They will go on serving trays in varied assortment for our waitstaff to pick up.
  • Cindy Fusco ([email protected]) - 50/50 Raffle Chair: Cindy may want a helper to sell tickets and will need to contact Linda McCann to make sure she has starting change and cash box
  • Tina Vojtko ([email protected]) - Cooking/Plating Chair:  5 people are needed to help plate the pasta so that student servers can deliver the plates to tables.
  • ????? Salad Chair (I believe someone volunteered, but I did not get the name, so please let us know and we'll edit the online form):  We will need about 5 people to assist the assembly of 200 salads. You'll need to arrive an hour or so before the event.
  • Jody Mawhinney ([email protected]) - Servers Chair:  Jody will meet with our student servers and assign tables, go over the expediting of getting food out (don't forget to serve the parents working raffle tables during dinner) She will also assign a hostess for front door seating.  (also in charge of getting butter packets )
  • CLEAN UP: After the event, we will again need all hands on deck to restore the hall to the way it was for clean up as well as serving our students. Please let us know if you want to serve as the clean up chairperson.
Thanks to all for your help in making this a fun and successful event!
