Committees

We encourage all levels of involvement, from chairing a committee to simply donating. The programs below are for the benefit of our children and we need the support of many parents in order to bring them to life.

Please note: Due to the ongoing pandemic and changing guidelines, the committee chairs may need to consider alternative formats/versions of events described below. Nevertheless, we encourage you to volunteer, and help in any capacity in which you are able.

Any general questions? Contact kellymcdonnellwilliams@gmail.com or saramckeown@gmail.com
