MS Parent Volunteers Needed

Hi all,
Middle School is holding a Social Skills event for their students on Friday October 30th and needs Parent Volunteers from 11:30 - 2pm. The three skills being taught are:

Meal: preparing a simple dish, serving and eating etiquette, washing dishes
Sewing: sewing on a button, handstiching a seam
Housework: making a bed, ironing clothes, cleaning/sweeping

Volunteers are needed to teach the skill(s) and/or supervise the students while they practice. Please arrive at 11:30 for instruction and set-up time.
It would be great to have plenty of volunteers to encourage our kids as they learn these valuable skills.
