One Lunch 2018-19
Primary & Backup Volunteers Needed
Have you always wanted to volunteer for Arcadia One Lunch? Now is your chance! We are recruiting One Lunch volunteers for the 2018-2019 school year right now. One Lunch is a great Arcadia tradition and we couldn't do it without parent volunteers. It is a fun opportunity to be on campus, and the commitment is manageable and well-planned out. Most volunteers work one lunch period (less than an hour) every other week. You can also sign up for the sub list or you can split a shift with someone (meaning you only work a shift once a month). Please contact Karen Treon for more information or with any questions. (
ktreon@gmail.com
