We have an opportunity to help the Cross Country team earn some money (to help fund race entry fees, team T-shirts, etc.). It is actually SO easy it only requires 4 XC parents to work a one-hour shift in the Grady parking lot. Runners can help for community service hours. PLEASE let our team parent, Denise Romeo, know as soon as possible if you can donate one hour of your time to help the Grady XC team, so that slots can be reserved.

Three (3) adults will be needed to work each 1-hour slot.  There are 20 teams/clubs so each team/club gets 4 1 hour slots.  Example:  Water polo can have 3 folks work 12 to 1 on Sun, then 1 person work 1 to 2 on Sun.  If kids want to come along, they can earn double community service hours, but they can't be one of the 3.

We will charge $10 per car on 8/20 and 8/21 and $20 per car on 8/28 (which is why we will pool the money for both weekends and divide accordingly). The beneficiary is Grady's Athletic Booster Club, which is a 501(c)(3), so the donation is tax deductible, thus receipts will be available to hand out if requested. NO CHECKS ARE ACCEPTED.

Last year, for Dogwood festival, each volunteer earned about $150/hour for their team/club with teams earning up to $500 (not a bad return).
