Calling all volleyball fans and supporters!
Our Platte-Geddes volleyball team plays tomorrow at 5:15 PM in the Hanson Early Bird Tournament, and we’re in need of a few volunteers to help make the game run smoothly. We’re looking for help with the following roles:
Bookkeeper
Libero Tracker
Line Judge
The game is in Alexandria and anyone who helps will be paid for their time and support!
If you're familiar with any of these duties and are willing to help out, please reach out to Carter Kemnitz or Katie Hunhoff.
Thanks so much for supporting Platte-Geddes Volleyball!

✅ Driving around the block & avoid making U-turns
✅ Pulling all the way forward in the drop-off lane
✅ Having students exit on the passenger side only
✅ Staying in your car while in the drop-off lane
✅ Using designated parking if you need to walk your child in
We know mornings can feel rushed, but following these steps helps us keep traffic moving and ensures all students are safe as they arrive at school. Thank you for modeling patience and caution—our students notice!💙
