Volunteers needed – chess cafes Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th June

On Saturday 24 June and Sunday 25 June, Broughton High School is hosting the UK Chess Challenge Scottish Gigafinal http://www.ljc.org.uk/new-events

This event provides a great opportunity to raise money for the school fund by running a cafe for participants and their parents over the two days. The school fund pays for things that would not normally be covered by the School or the Council e.g. the S1 school ties, sports strips, school trips and other educational activities. We’ve had a number of requests for funding recently and so we really need to raise more money. 

To make this event a success we need as many volunteers as possible, to help with the cafe and to provide home baking. 

If you can spare an hour or two between 9am and 3.30pm and/or can provide home baking, please add your name to the rota (link below) or reply to this email. 

Please forward this email to any other parents who might be able to help out.

If you haven’t helped at the cafe before, it involves serving hot drinks, juice, home baking, soup and rolls. We take cash but we also have a card machine.  It’s not a demanding job and is a great opportunity to meet other parents!
