Meat Raffle/Burger Night/Car Show Fund Raiser - Wed July 30th
A quick message out to all of you in the Storm CC family. Each summer we participate in the Sauk Rapids VFW Burger Night meat raffle. This year, the night falls on Wednesday, July 30 from around 4:30-7:30. Please mark your calendars and come back to the blog for more specific details.
We will need parent volunteers to sell raffle tickets to the patrons while they enjoy burgers and sweet corn inside and the car show outside in the parking lot.
Student/athletes are welcome to come and participate by eating a meal there, wearing Storm Cross Country wear and possibly assist in busing tables when people are done eating. (only the parents can sell the raffle tickets) Basically, the athletes presence is important so the people buying the tickets know who they will be supporting.
Please stay tuned for further details in the near future as this is the first fund raiser we do each year for the team.
