First Quarter Opportunities to Serve
Ways to Engage.
Greetings! It's hard to believe that we are already in the 2nd month of 2020. I wanted to send out some opportunities for involvement over the next couple of months. Please feel free to share this with others. We welcome engagement from the community in any of these opportunities.

If you want to get involved, click the link below and let me know how you want to engage in the work. Feel free to reach out with any questions as well. I can be reached by email or by phone at 206.631.3120.

Thanks -

Gold Star BASH Volunteers
We hold the Gold Star BASH to recognize the nominees from the Gold Star Awards Process and announce the winners. This is such a fun event with about 150 district employees and their families in attendance. This year's event is on Tuesday, March 10 from 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. at the SeaTac Community Center

We need LOTS of volunteers to make this event happen including setting up at about 4:30 p.m.; serving food and beverages during the event; and cleaning up afterwards. Many hands make light work.

Email me if you are interested in helping.
