Sheriff’s Cup: The Ellsworth YMCA asked if we could help at this year’s Sheriff Cup. The event is March 8,9,10. They would be happy with any help we can provide over the three days. Help is needed with people to run the clock and score board, admission tables, and concessions at both EEMS and EHS while the games take place. This is a great opportunity to help support the program. These are the families that will be impacted the most by our Legacy Project, and the families that we will be asking to support the auction by either donating items or coming to the auction.
