VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES THAT NEED TO BE FILLED
Our association has grown tremendously over the last few years. With the recent addition of our 3/4th grade and 5/6th grade Spring teams, and our JV , U13, and U11 Summer teams, we've had roughly 90+ families take advantage of the programs and coaching the Association has had to offer over the last 12 months.
Unfortunately, in order to continue providing and improving these programs, we need more help.
Attached is a list of ADDITIONAL VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES. This is a list of coordinating positions for important tasks which need completing over the next year. Brief explanations are given for each position.
Each position will be supervised by a board member to be assigned.
Please consider taking on a position. Contact Patrick Porte at [email protected] if you are interested or would like more information.

As it is said, "More Hands makes Light Work!"

SODEXO
Dexter Lacrosse Association has a valuable contract with Sodexo Sports and Leisure to staff concession stands at certain U-M athletic events. These volunteer opportunities are good team building events for student athletes and their families. They are also seen as good work experience for our students athletes. Proceeds from these events allow the Association to purchase equipment, offset player fees, and supplement the cost of tournaments, camps and special events. Signups are currently open for various U-M athletic events. Based on our Sodexo commitments and the number of student athletes participating in Dexter Lacrosse programs, each family of an athlete 7th grade or above is expected to fill 10 volunteer slots. http://signupgenius.com/go/10C0548AEAA28A46-sodexo/1136584

Thank you and Be the One!
