PARENT COUNCIL CORNER
EMHS Casino Fundraiser – Save the date!
Charitable Gaming through the AGLC allows community groups to raise much needed funds by having members work casino shifts over a designated 2-day period. Thanks to the dedication of our Parent Council, EMHS has been granted a Casino Fundraiser for the upcoming school year. The EMHS casino dates will be Oct 24 and 25 2025 at Cowboys Casino. To confirm our commitment, we are required to forward volunteer information before the end of this school year.
Parent Council needs to fill various shifts (chip runner, count room, etc.) plus the casino chair position. If you can be available to work one shift (you get fed!!) to support this worthwhile endeavour, please email chair@emhscouncil.com to sign up or to ask any follow up questions.
