Open Houses: We are planning on offering food for sale at each open house, staffed by the other grades’ parents (ie, elem on middle school night, vice versa). Volunteers will be needed to serve food, collect money and clean up. Grades 6-8, Sep. 17, 2019, 5:30 PM – 7:00 PM Grades 3-5, Sep. 26, 2019, 5:30 PM – 7:00 PM
Parking Fundraiser: Oct. 5 (4PM – 10PM), Nov. 9 and Dec. 7 (4 – 10PM) Volunteers are needed to collect cash, run the card reader, and hold signs at key intersections. We’d also like to correspond directly with local businesses so they know the lot is available for servers/staff to safely park together on Hop nights. Proceeds benefit the 8th grade Washington, DC scholarship fund.
Read A Thon (Nov. 8 – 15): RAT is our largest fundraiser. We are looking for a volunteer to oversee the administration of this event. Much of the work is handled by http://read-a-thon.com.
NovemberFest (Saturday, Nov. 16): Novemberfest is a community-building event for CGA that does offer some fundraising opportunities.
