In May 2010, MCEA held our yearly Spring Fling at Thunder Bowls. New officers and building representatives were voted in and retirees were presented with an appreciation gift. Many members were winners from the auction. Thanks to everyone who donated and bought tickets. Ticket sales go toward our scholarship fund.

New building reps will attend a training on Tuesday, August 24 at 10:00am RM110 HS. They will be in touch with you as soon as school starts. Have a great year and check back here for board minutes throughout the year.
