Fall Festival Secretary
We are still seeking a volunteer to help Susie Burchardt with her position. She has been volunteering in this position for several years and would like to retire from it. We need someone to work with her and be trained to take it over next year. It involves procurement of licenses, maintaining financial records, ordering the printing of the raffle tickets, preparing the Parish letter, getting the letter and tickets to the Guild to stuff, assist in distribution and mailing, procuring the various monies for the day of festival, keeping track of all the raffle tickets, and preparing the final report. It is a key role in the success of the Fall Festival. Please take time to prayerfully consider this opportunity to assist your parish. Please contact Helene Matecki at (269) 792-2829.
