What's New This Week?
Boo Bash Volunteer
The 2013 Boo Bash and Family Movie Night will be held on Tuesday, October 29th from 6-7:30 PM at Sunnyside Intermediate School in Lafayette.  Public Schools Foundation of Tippecanoe County is looking for help setting up, serving food, and/or cleaning up after the event. None of these tasks require "heavy lifting," only a great attitude and an appreciation for Scooby Doo and cute kids costumes! If interested, visit the volunteer website or contact Christine, psftc@yahoo.com or 765-429-4089.
