Richard McBride PAC needs some help

Does your kid go to Richard McBride Elementary School? Well, the parent advisory committee is looking for volunteers for a number of events – maybe you can help. On Thursday, May 24, the PAC needs volunteers for the school bake sale.

At risk: Richard McBride Elementary School is a striking building on Richmond Street, looking out over Sapperton and the Fraser River. It’s also at high risk of widespread damage or structural failure in the event of an earthquake – and it’s still awaiting seismic upgrades. The Treasury Board is currently studying the McBride project; it’s not yet known whether the school will be retrofitted or replaced.

On Thursday, May 24, the PAC needs volunteers for the school bake sale. Volunteers are needed from 7:30 to 7:50 a.m. for setup and from 7:50 to 8:45 a.m. for sales. Volunteer bakers are also needed. If you’re free or able to do some baking, contact Anousheh at [email protected].

On Saturday, June 2, parents are needed to help wrap coins collected in the coin drive that is runs from May 28 to June 1. Wrappers can volunteer for one, two or three hours between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. at the school. Kids are welcome to tag along and hang out in the gym. And hey, there’ll be snacks, too. So why not?

On Friday, June 15 the PAC needs volunteers for the concession at the school’s Fun Day. They need someone to take the lead as well as people to help with set up, selling and take down. For info, email [email protected].
