VOLUNTEERING

We depend upon parents to help in the classroom by setting up field trips, cutting wood for our carpentry table, helping with gardening, maintaining our library and coordinating special events like the Harvest party to name a few ideas. We also enjoy parents coming in to share a special talent, hobby, recipe, or knowledge about a special project the children are working on. Your efforts to volunteer in school supports your child’s learning experiences.

SPECIAL GIFTS

At special times families want to give a special gift in honor of their child’s enjoyment of the program. The program director maintains a special wish list of items outside the annual budget that would enhance the program.

Participate in our Silent Auction

In the Fall of each year Crescent Park hosts the “Under the Oaks” Silent Auction, an event where Crescent Park families and friends come together to raise funds for the Center.  This event is our biggest social event of the year and is so much fun!   Families and friends donate their time, expertise and creativity by hosting small parties throughout the year, creating a special piece of school memorabilia, donating an item or service or simply solicit donations from local merchants.  There are always great bargains, and lots of friendly yet competitive bidding at the tables and during the live auction!

Each year we look for a team of 8-10 committee members to help with this event.  For more information, please contact Crescent Park at 650-322-9668 or email us.
