Children’s Festival Organizers Needed
Plans are just beginning for the 22nd San Juan Island Children’s Festival scheduled for May 5, 2012 and committee members are needed to help with planning, organizing and coordination of this festival.
Other than the willingness and time to work as a team committed to creating a fun filled festival dedicated to celebrating children, no other special skills are needed. With the exception of the festival day itself, committee members volunteer roughly 6-8 hours per months beginning in January.
Contact Sally Thomsen, Recreation Director at Island Rec at 378-4953 or play@islandrec.org to learn more about this volunteer opportunity!
The Children’s Festival is an annual island wide event where over 30 community groups gather to celebrate children by providing entertaining, creative, interactive, educational and playful activities. It is supported by numerous businesses and organizations and is coordinated by Island Rec. The Children’s Festival is an entire community effort and is second only to the county fair in its scope of community participation and the number of people who attend and it is the commitment of the dedicated volunteers on the Children’s Festival Committee who bring the festival to life every year.
