Fireworks Time

The LSW Music Parent group will once again be selling fireworks at the high school. This is a great fundraiser for our organization and we need everyone’s help to make it a great success. All proceeds from this fundraiser will go to the LSWMP general fund.

A training session will be held June 24th at Pyro City in Lone Jack, Mo. This training session is optional, but it is a great place to learn how to run the cash registers and to learn more about fireworks that we will be selling this year.

Volunteer Opportunities:

June 30th Setup: The truck will be at the school at 7 a.m. and we need lots of volunteers to help set up the tent. If you are available during this time, please sign up to help.

July 1st to July 4th Fireworks: There are several three-hour shifts throughout each day; please sign up for a shift to assist with selling fireworks.

July 4th Packup: Again we will need lots of volunteers to help tear everything down; the more volunteers that we have, the faster it will get done. If you are available; please sign up to help.

The volunteer sign-up schedule has been added to the Charms calendar. To sign up:

STUDENTS:

Once again we are offering a special LIMITED opportunity for the first 7 students to volunteer to setup and packup. Students that sign up for the special STUDENT ONLY shifts will earn $15 per 2 hour shift. This money will be deposited directly to their student account.

Students can earn Community Volunteer hours by volunteering at the tent. You must be 18 or older to work the cash register, but students can re-stock merchandise and assist customers.

Thank you!
