BUILD A PLAYGROUND AND BUILD COMMUNITY!
Mission 66's community project needs your help! We need 150 volunteers per shift from Wednesday May 1 to Sunday May 5, 2019. The shifts are 8am-12, 12:30-5pm, 5:30pm-dusk. We need skilled workers which are those who are able to cut a straight line with a circular saw. We need unskilled workers who can help sign in volunteers, sign in and out tools, childcare, food prep, sand, shovel, cleanup, spread mulch, assist with carpentry jobs or paint in the art tent. We will feed you lunch and supper and if you need childcare, it will be provided on the weekend. Let us know if you have any specific needs or talents and we'll find a job for you. Please sign up on the link below. If you don't know your schedule yet, please still sign up for any day or shift so we know how many people we can count on. Your time and day can always be changed later. The Mission 66 Committee THANKS YOU for all your support! Click link above to sign up.
