Irving Tasty Dog Raffle Tickets at Irving Book Fair Today

Please consider signing up for a one-hour time slot to sell tickets at Tasty Dog next Wednesday, April 30th. Pair up with your kid, it’s a fun job for them. I am mostly looking for people between the hours of 3:00 and 7:00, but filling all time slots would be great. 
 
Also, I’ll be popping into the book fair to sell tickets on Wednesday evening, so you can buy your raffle tickets then, and also sign up for a volunteer slot if you like. 
 
The hard copies went into the Teacher’s mailboxes late last week, hopefully you got yours! Feel free to send the form back at your convenience if you would like to buy tickets that way.  Please see the attached flyer/form for a list of the fantastic prizes. Use the link below to sign up to volunteer. 
 
Thanks!
