Salmon Days Parking
Volunteers Needed
Salmon Days Parking is one of IVE's most important fundraisers!!! Volunteer shifts are just 2.5 hours!
Last year, IVE volunteers helped raise $30,000 through Salmon Days parking. That money helped fund so many of the experiences that make IVE special — the art program, field trips, classroom grants, assemblies, technology, Snack Shack, Cougar Store, Popcorn Fridays, family events, and more. Adults and high school students are welcome to take one 2.5-hour shift during Salmon Days weekend.

Where/How: Pick up food bags (in crates) at the IFB warehouse (a block away from school!) and deliver them to me at IVE. Many hands make light work, so thank you for considering this opportunity and taking a few Wednesday afternoons to help.
