Eagle Fun Days...

You have probably seen the side box asking for volunteers for Eagle Fun Days (which is just around the corner!) on this website.  To go along with that, Eagle Vision is in need of volunteers to help work at the firework tent located in front of the Corner Cafe.  This is a Great fundraising opportunity but needs a lot of volunteers to make it work.  All funds go to Eagle Vision to help support our FABULOUS Fun Day!  Please, call Rhonda Halvorsen to get signed up (or sign up online)!  Rhonda Halvorsen (cell) 430-1193 or Cafe 781-2333.
