Urgent Need for Carnival Volunteers

Ladies and Gentlemen of McGaugh Elementary,

     This is an urgent plea for help at YOUR Carnival this weekend!  Your PTA volunteers have tallied all the volunteer sheets and we are quite thin on staffing for much of the Carnival – especially the 2nd shift (11:30am – 1pm) and the 3rd shift (1pm – 2:30pm).

     This Carnival & Silent Auction is put on for the benefit of your children and the school they attend.  Many people have put countless hours into the planning and preparation for this event – I would think most people would be able to give an hour and a half (one shift) as their contribution toward a great day!  If you have not already done so, please contact your Room Parent immediately to help fill the shifts for your classroom booth.  If they are full, there are many other positions needing to be filled – contact Lina Ayale or me to find other opportunities.

     So many people ask, "What can I do to help?"  This is your chance and your kids will love you for it – help make a great Carnival experience for all!!

     Whether or not you volunteer, don't miss your chance to get free Carnival tickets tomorrow and Friday before and after school.  Presale tickets will be sold at the Flag Pole, the Pool Parking Lot, and the West Gate for a special pre-carnival price of only $20 for $25 worth of tickets.  That an amazing 25% more free!  This deal will only be available during the presale and will not be offered during the Carnival.

Thank You in Advance,


Rick Gordon
