this sunday at railroad square: streets of service and more
this showed up in my inbox today:
Good morning,
Just a reminder that the Street of Service event sponsored by Volunteer Leon and the Directors of Volunteers Association is this Sunday, April 13 from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM in Railroad Square. The event is in conjunction with the 1st Annual Circle the Square for Peace event. This is a great opportunity to learn about available volunteer opportunities while spending a fun filled afternoon with family and friends.
This is a free event and there will be something for everyone. Other special events and activities include:
o Live performances by local bands
o Manatee Mushroom Man
o Farmer’s market fruit and vegetable vendors
o Children’s games
o Yoga instructions
o Dances of Universal Peace
o Face Painters
o Pet Rescue and Adoption
The Second Sunday Fair at the Square will also be going on from Noon until
5:00 PM and beyond. The Sarah Mac Band will begin playing at 5:00 PM so there will be things going on into the latter part of the afternoon and early evening.
In addition, the Bloodmobile will be out there from 1:30 PM until about 4:00 PM. If you would like to donate, please email Bill Grace at aloha@balihi.us so he can get you on the schedule. Please let him know in your email what time works best for you.
Finally, remember to bring your canned goods donation for the Second Harvest basket.
Sincerely,
Valerie Franklin

i'm definitely considering checking out the "streets of service" portion of the event and the sarah mac band myself. looks like plenty of other stuff to keep an attendee busy too--though personally i'll probably pass on the face paining.
