Education Takes Flight Breakfast!

Dear Falcon Families,
It’s that time of year again!  Cascade Heights is preparing for its annual Education Takes Flight Breakfast fundraiser.  This day provides an opportunity for Cascade Heights to share with other people its work and mission; as well as for the Cascade Heights’ families to connect with each other, celebrate milestones, and recognize those who have supported us along the way. We hope you’ll be joining us this year!
Different than previous years, the breakfast will take place at our own school on May 3, 2013; we would like to confirm between 175 - 200 guests, who will enjoy a breakfast from the culinary center at North Clackamas School District’s Sabin-Schellenberg Center. To reach this goal and make this year’s Education Takes Flight a success, we need volunteers.
Would you please consider helping Cascade Heights as a Table Captain and invite 9 friends, grandparents and other family members, co-workers and/or community leaders to our school fundraiser? As a Table Captain you can also help us fill your table by calling the people who have attended one of our events such as the Night of the Notables, the science fair, or the Soar With Us Tour.
If you are available to join our volunteer team this year, please e-mail me at Delia_Palomeque@comcast.net or call me at 503-502-6395 by March 8, 2013. Table Captains will receive training and assistance; however we need to assemble this group soon in order to maximize our efforts.
If you do not want to commit to being a Table Captain, but you have a potential guest in mind, we will be happy to help out by inviting them to join us for you. Please forward any potential Breakfast guest names and contact info to Charo Herndon; by email charoherndon@comcast.net, or phone 503-849-2383. Let’s fill every seat together!
Thank you so much in advance for your continued support to Cascade Heights during its annual Education Takes Flight fundraiser.

Sincerely,

Delia Palomeque & Charo Herndon
CHPCS - 6th and 8th grade parents
