Weekly Update

Every year, May Sands Montessori hosts a Poker Tournament as a fun, easy fundraiser for our school. We want to get a group of parents trained to deal poker so we have a pool of dealers available for these events. This is a fun way to earn service hours. Depending on volunteers' availability, we'll schedule at least one training session hosted and taught by Mark at the VFW. Please use the link below to sign up and indicate when you have general availability to attend a training session (weeknights, weekend days, etc). Christina will be reaching out to get the session scheduled. Thank you!
