PTA Volunteer | Mill Creek Elementary School | Mill Creek, WA 98012As my children started school, I began actively participating in their school's PTA. Fundraising quickly became my focus and I had a great deal of success in my endeavors while undertaking both very large fundraisers as in chairing auction night events at our local country club as well as overseeing student sales oriented campaigns throughout each school year. Additionally, I oversaw several staff appreciation events, was a room parent for all three of my children and, finally, was the chairman of a 5th Grade Celebration. During all of the events and celebrations I chaired, I effectively communicated with large teams of volunteers, both parents and students and developed a reputation as a creative and efficient leader. My years of service culminated in my being given the schools highest award for volunteer service, the Golden Acorn.
