URGENT! We sill need some spots filled for selling tickets! If you could and would be willing to sign up for a few more spots on the two weeks leading up to M.M., I would really appreciate it! I will sign off on it being service hours if any of you are needing some. Thanks! Here are the times we still need people (even if just ONE person can do each day that's fine, but I need at LEAST one for each day)...
