We will be making them out of butcher paper, all we have to do is measure and cut them to the right size. I need 2 parents for the Jr. High and 2 parents for the Elementary School Building. Please email Kasey Grubb, Health and Safety POET board member, for more information/if you are able to volunteer kgrubb7@hotmail.com.
