ODDS ARE: WE NEED YOU!

This event does not happen in May without an army of parent volunteers from our Novi families.

How can you help? Volunteer to assist with a committee, sign up to work the night of the event, and help contribute to our donation and merchandise needs. Be sure to include your student(s) name in the comment portion as they will earn an extra grand prize raffle ticket for your participation in the event!
