*Volunteer Spotlight*
Elliot and Ramone are students at Mountain View High School. They volunteered this summer helping prepare materials for Birdies 4 Babies. They counted and sorted bidding wands then made new ones, prepped bag tags for the golf tournament, and individually stamped and packed each gift box with a succulent. Having extra hands to get ready for our biggest event of the year is truly invaluable! In addition to all of this, Elliot and Ramone also helped with the flamingo fundraiser leading up to B4B. They had a lot of fun shepherding our flock of flamingos around Bend! We are so grateful that they chose to spend part of their summer vacation supporting MountainStar!
