Desserts for Lenten Fish Fry

The Knights of Columbus have asked SPY if we would like to provide the desserts for the Friday Fish Fry meals during Lent. SPY has done this in the past, so I figured we'd do it again. The idea is that the members of SPY provide dessert each week and provide folks to man the dessert table. In exchange, SPY gets to keep any donations for the desserts.

I think this is a great opportunity for teens (and their families) to be a part of other activities in the Parish. And it is an opportunity to raise some funds for SPY. Fr. Adrian was very generous in providing a large part of the funding for those that attended DCYC this year. In addition, teens that volunteer will get service hour credits for the time they volunteer.

So now SPY needs your help. We need teens to volunteer to man the table each week. This will count as service hours. We also need people to bring desserts. What kind of desserts you ask. Just about any kind - cake, cookies, cupcakes, brownies, pie, just about anything yummy. Use the SPY Signup Genius. Just find the one for the day you can bring dessert.

How does all this work? There will be a table setup for desserts. We will need 3-4 people to work at the table. They will set the desserts out on plates or in bowls, greet people and accept donations. Another group of people would bring the desserts. Yes, those that volunteer can bring desserts if they want.

The dinner starts at 5:00 so the volunteers would need to be there by 5:00. The desserts should also be there by 5:00, the earlier the better. It would be ideal if at least one of the volunteers could be there by 4:45 to have some desserts ready when they start serving food at 5:00.

Teens (or their parents) should contact me directly if they want to volunteer. I need to keep track of who is there so you get proper credit for the time.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns please contact me. You can reach me on my calle at 512.431.8642 or email me at davide@pobox.com.
