At this time, the Program Events Manager will cover the following events (subject to change):

• PEF’s Casino Fundraiser – (Usually in early February)
• PEF’s Teacher/Employee of the Year Celebration (Usually in April)
• PEF’s Foundation Thursday Member Appreciation (One in the Fall and one in the Spring)
