Dear Parents and Adult Members of the Cedar Bluffs Community,
Pounding the Pavement needs your help!
We have the opportunity to raise money at the Husker Spring Football Game on Saturday, April 9th. We will be working in the concession stands. Our shift begins at 10:30 and ends at the conclusion of the game. This is a time commitment of about 6 1/2 hours.
The university will donate approximately $65 per worker to our organization.
Mrs. Kloke will be driving a van to the university if you would prefer not to drive.
We have five people already volunteering, but we could use more!
If anyone is interested in helping us, please contact Mr. Greg Brousek at 402-719-1630 or email him at greg.brousek@cbwildcats.org.
Congrats to our Wildcat NCPA Academic All state recipients.
