Fundraisers

I want to update you on a few fundraisers we have planned. First, I have a conference call tomorrow with Steve Cunningham at Keeneland about clean up for fall meet. Second, I have requested dates for Amazon gift wrapping and will send those out. Finally, I need 3 volunteers to assist me in planning a fundraiser on Saturday, November 12th. The event is called "Men Who Cook" and features teams of 2-6 men who prepare sample sizes of any dish they want. Tickets are sold to taste the food and the fun comes in decorating your table or dish themed costumes. For example, one group made lace cookies and called themselves "Men in Lace."

Mr. Diaz has approved our use of the school on the 12th of November and I need a few volunteers to help make this event possible. I was a part of planning the event in Tuscaloosa, AL, and here's a link to the article about it - http://www.tuscaloosanews.com/news/20150803/focus-on-senior-citizens-to-hold-fundraiser-friday

It's a lot of fun and comes with a good profit margin. Plus it will help raise awareness about Spanish Immersion. Please let me know if you want to be a part of any of these fundraisers.
