Atwater Village Volunteer Opportunity: Fall Festival

Hi Neighbors -


Leonora Pitts, your friendly neighborhood Neighborhood Council co- chair here!

This coming Friday, October 30th from 4:30-6:30, the Atwater Village Neighborhood Council will be hosting our annual Fall Festival: Trick or Treat on the BOOlevard, co-sponsored by the Atwater Village Chamber of Commerce. Our AV kids trick or treat at most of our fabulous businesses along Glendale Boulevard. It's safe and fun and easy!

Many of you are businesses who are participating, and for that we THANK YOU!

We are in need of volunteers for several things. This event is so much fun - the kids are incredibly adorable. I promise you won't be able to stop smiling.

1) Crossing Guards - we need 25 people to meet at the Madera bumpout (in front of Kaldi Coffee) at 3:45 PM on Friday and collect a stop sign and an orange vest. We will station you at one of the intersections and you will walk the kids across the street with the lights. Easy!

2) Candy/Novelty Delivery - On either Thursday from 1-3 or Friday from 10-12, we need volunteers to meet at Lenore Solis's office (3315 Glendale Blvd - Lenore, an AVNC board member, has graciously offered to house all of the candy and novelties we will be giving out) and then deliver the candy and novelties to our businesses. I will be there on Thursday, but I work on Friday, so I am hoping to get a team leader and about FIVE other volunteers. I will organize and filter what is going where, so it will be pretty easy. The more people who step up for this job, the faster it goes. Please let me know if you can come on Thursday or Friday or both.

3) Set-up and clean-up - we need about ten people to help inflate balloons and then tie them to the parking meters on Glendale Blvd. We also need people to help clean-up after the event (this usually goes pretty quickly; again, the more the merrier and faster!).

If you are a business owner/manager who is participating or if you are unavailable to help, please do us an enormous favor by passing this email on to anyone who may be able to step up.

Please send me an email or call me at (323) 719-7323 to let me know for WHICH JOB you would like to volunteer.

We can't do this without you! Thanks so much for all you do -

All my best, Leonora
