Soup Lunch
At Soup Lunch, the entire student body eats lunch together at one sitting – it’s an annual kick-off to the holiday season. Parents prepare and donate soups for the luncheon. If cooking is not your forte, there is always a need for serving, set up and clean up.

Trivia Night & Auction
There are many different ways to help out with our biggest event of the year -- behind the scenes, ahead of time, or the night of. Volunteers needed to brainstorm the event, set up, work, and clean the night-of. If we hold a silent auction, we would need help sending out mailings, collecting donations from local businesses, preparing auction baskets, etc.
