If you lose your tickets or money, or do not turn in unsold tickets or money, the school will bill you for the value of the missing tickets.
If you can volunteer to help out before, during or after the Fish Fry, please contact PTO member Aaron Fisher at theaaronmfisher@gmail.com or 765.702.5978 . We need people to bread the fish, wait tables, and clean up the Knights of Columbus Hall after the dinner.
