Seeking RGMS Auction leader
We are seeking a highly organized, auction savvy go-getter to project manage our auction this year!

Lots of folks are ready to lend their talents; we just need a project manager to pull off this fun, community-building event to raise money for Chrome Books and our Foundation that provides for RGMS support staff key to keeping our school strong.
