Each year we are in search of parents to shadow and chair the various booths at the Fair.
A Booth Chair oversees the planning, setup, operations and breakdown of the booth they are in charge of. A Booth Shadow works under the Booth Chair assisting the Chair throughout the year in order to take on the role the following year.
The junior class is tasked with taking the lead at many of the booths including Malasada, Gourmet Drinks and Desserts, and our Game Booths. Sophomores will shadow these booths and shift workers will come from the other grade levels. The remaining booths (Plants, Auction, Will Call, Logo, and Sweets & Treats) will be chaired and shadowed by other grade levels.
