Taste
of Fall Committee
This
month’s volunteer spotlight will feature an entire group of people who have
been dedicated and committed to LPCS for years!
The
Taste of Fall Committee is made up of 6 people total, a small group considering
all that they do for LPCS and all that they accomplish in only 6 months to plan
Taste of Fall, our annual fall fundraiser.
The
group gets together at least once a month to discuss the needs for the event,
what will make it extra exciting, and particularly how we can top previous
years and have it be the most successful each time. This group has been working
together for many years, and the best part is – they volunteer elsewhere at
LPCS as well!
Andrew Hogue is a dedicated
Overnight Volunteer that also occasionally serves meals. He is on the overnight
backup team and has been able to step up for last minute shifts on a number of
occasions. Andrew had the brilliant idea for the ultimate tasting raffle, and
has been a huge part in gathering donations for that and the silent auction.
Ann Brinkman Carstensen is someone that
is passionate about non profits within her career as well as in her spare time.
She serves meals with our Community Engagement Program on Sundays. Ann has been
a great help with making sure everything is aesthetically appealing, she is
incredibly supportive (even at the more stressful times!), and it is her
decorative eye that makes Taste of Fall such a stunning event.
Brent Carstensen has been with
LPCS for a long time, first as a volunteer, and now currently serves as the
President of the LPCS Board of Directors. Brent is an expert at making great
connections with the delicious drink vendors at our event.
Dan Tarabori has been a
volunteer with LPCS for many years, and joins his wife, Sarah Tarabori, as the heads of the LPCS Associate Board. Dan is a
clear leader, making sure our meetings are always on task. Sarah is entirely
responsible for our upcoming event’s newest addition, a wine toss game where
everyone is a winner!
Jeff Lawler also serves on
our Board of Directors, and in his free time enjoys serving breakfasts at LPCS
as well. Jeff is responsible for much of the delicious food at the event,
including his very own Geja’s Café.
This
event would not exist if it were not for the tireless dedication of these LPCS
volunteers and friends. Thank you so much for your hard work over the last
year, and I cannot wait to enjoy this fantastic event with you in just a few
weeks!
