Join the Parking Crew
Soccer season is (almost) back which means the parking crew will also be back in action offering parking to the Timbers and Thorns fans. These parking fundraisers hosted by the PTSA will continue to fill the gap and help support our staff and students with the much-needed funds for student activities. Shifts are short and our parking coordinators (other parents) will be there to teach you everything you need to know. Sign up HERE
Cocoa & Cider Social
January 25, 3:30-4:30
MLC Gate to Couch Park
We’re excited for an opportunity for families to connect over cocoa and cider! Contact Chenney, Sheila or Tammy with questions or to volunteer.
MLC Craft Faire
February 15, 3:30-5:30 *Please note the later end time!*
MLC Auditorium
Sign up to be part of the MLC Craft Faire! Tables are free for students and open to non-students with a $20 donation to the PTSA. Students who are interested in playing live music during the celebration are welcome to sign up too! More information and registration can be found HERE. We also need volunteers to assist with set up and clean up so please contact Sheila if you are interested in lending a hand!
If you don’t plan to be a vendor, be sure to save the date for shopping and celebrating the creativity of our MLC community!
MLC PTSA Annual Auction
The MLC PTSA Annual Auction is our largest fundraiser of the year and is also one of our most cherished community-building events. The planning committee is working to finalize details so expect a save the date announcement to come out very soon!
The auction is a fun opportunity to come together as a community and celebrate the magic of MLC, but we can’t do it without your support! Over the coming months, we'll share details about how MLC families can help us put on an entertaining event that raises funds and builds community. Here are ways you can help!
DONATE (AND/OR ASK OTHERS TO DO SO!): Do you own a small business? Or perhaps know someone who does? How about a vacation rental or time share? Do you have a skill to share? Do you have items in new condition that you don’t need and you’d rather pass on to a good cause? Perhaps you have a drawer full of old gift cards and certificates that you haven't used but that are still giftable (I can’t be the only one?!)? Please consider donating your talent or your things to the auction!
We are looking for goods & services that we can package together to sell at our silent and live auction events. There is no limit (big OR small!) and each and every item truly helps…gift cards/certificates, physical items, artwork, experiences, Airbnb stays, festival tickets, bottles of wine, photography sessions, signed books…think outside the box about what *YOU* can offer, or ask your favorite business what they can contribute!
Use our online donation form (or grab a paper donation form from the PTSA cubby in the MLC office). If you’d like a template donation request letter, just ask and we’d be happy to share.
We’re also looking for folks to host Buy-in Parties! Find more info on the INTEREST FORM
VOLUNTEER: We need volunteers to help make all the magic happen, but it doesn't have to be a huge commitment! We need volunteers of all types but we are especially looking for folks who can help design our promotional materials and website, create a heartwarming video, and perhaps musicians who want to play at the event. Contact Sierra Stringfield Perryman with any questions or if you are interested in getting involved!
