ways to help the ravioli effort
|
|
Your willingness to volunteer for Saint Leo's is what makes it possible for the parish to host the twice-annual Ravioli Dinners. Don't miss out on the FUN!
Ravioli-making sessions:
Saturday, February 11
Saturday, February 18
9 am
These two sessions need many hands to help produce the 13,000 ravioli needed to serve during the March 5 dinner.
Meatball-making session:
Saturday, March 4
9 am
This session produces the approximate 5,000 meatballs for the March 5 dinner. Come roll with us!
The three sessions are set up in the School Hall on Stiles Street next to the bocce courts. All are welcome; experienced volunteers will teach you the process. No reply is needed. Merely show up with hair tied back and preferably covered. Wear an apron and bring a ravioli tool if you have one. A complimentary pasta lunch is served.
DINNER VOLUNTEERS: Many needed for waitstaff, busing tables, coffee servers, Big Wheel volunteers, tray carriers, salad makers, raffle sellers, and other positions. Volunteer hours: 11:30am (11:15 for waitstaff) until approximately 6 pm. A second shift of tray carriers is for 2-6 pm.
DONATE SWEETS FOR CAKE WHEEL: Cakes, pies, cookies and other baked goods are needed for the Cake Wheel. Drop off in the parish office during business hours the week before the March 5 dinner, or bring to the School Hall on the day of the dinner.
