We are looking for volunteers for the Pow Wow.
Jun 27th, 2010 Posted in FEATURED, MENDOTA POW WOW'S | no comment »Hello to all our members and friends. We are looking for volunteers at the Pow Wow. If you are interested please call or email the office. We are looking for a Pow Wow coordinator to get people to help with the Pow Wow, also another person to help the coordinator in making calls, and help put people in time slots. We always need more people for the evening time slots. For every 4 hours you volunteer, you will get a voucher worth $10.00 in food.
Remember for every 4 hours you volunteer you will get one of Connie’s delicious indian tacos for FREE, or what ever you want. Don’t forget Sharon’s fry bread and maple butter. Yum Yum!
