Day School Community Highlights
Fall Festival Volunteers Needed!
Help serve our famous Walking Tacos, Smoked BBQ Baked Potatoes & EDS-Made Puppy Chow at the 95th Annual West Side Nut Club Fall Festival - October 3-8. Parents, teachers, students, alumni... anyone can help at Booth 109. There are plenty of ways to get involved and help raise tons of money for the EDS community. Want to work the food assembly line inside the booth? You can do that! Want to take customers' orders & serve ice cold beverages & homemade Cotton Candy? You can do that, too! If you'd rather work from home, you can bake potatoes and deliver them to the booth. We need about 7 people to work each of the 3 daily shifts (9am-1pm; 1pm-5pm; 5pm-10:30), plus potato bakers.
