EPPS Casino 2023 Fundraiser – Confirmed October 10 & 11
Our bi-annual casino is scheduled is next week on Tuesday Oct 10 and 11 at Cowboy’s Casino. We are a minimum of 13 volunteers short required to have a successful event, and we urgently need these last few slots filled. Please use the below link. This is a great way to meet other parents and can be quite an enjoyable evening (free food and parking are provided)! Note that “hiring out” shifts is contrary to the AGLC rules and we need to have volunteers. However, if parents of students are not able to make it for a shift, those who are affiliated with Elbow Park School such as older siblings (must be 18), grandparents or members of the community are able to participate.
