Looking for a sweet volunteer opportunity to get those community service hours in?
Paper Moon Pastries in Cortland would like to help you out! They are looking for volunteers for the Once in a Blue Moon Fall Festival and Chili Cook Off on Saturday, October 12th in Cortland. Please see Mrs. Oelling in the Library to sign up!
Saturday, October 5th at Prairie Hill Learning Center, a non-profit toddler-through-8th grade Montessori center set on a 12-acre farmstead between Roca and Sprague is hosting a Children's Country Fair. At this annual event, there are a variety of kid-centric activities (face painting, pony rides, cake walk, penny toss), but also live music, a raffle, a bake sale, and some educational booths. This event is open to the community, and we’ve seen as many as 300 attendees in past years. If you are looking for more ways to earn volunteer hours, this is it. You will help oversee some of the kids activities, help direct parking, help work the bake sale, or other options. Shifts are 30-60 minutes; volunteers could potentially earn up to 6 hours if they wanted to arrive ahead for final set-up and stay after for clean-up, but certainly any time that fit their availability in-between! Thanks for considering this opportunity! Interested parties can sign-up here; please have them enter “(name of high school) volunteer” in the comments, and I’ll know to send them additional info!
