Volunteers needed to help our Food Bank Drive

Hi everyone, I just received this email from Heather Stacey Communications and Events Office SHARE Famly Services and I thought I would get the word out about the help we need. So if you can help, please think about giving Heather a call.

SHARE‘s Fund Development Summer Event schedule is quickly heating up and we would really like your help to make the most out of these events.　 The first event is this Sunday July 10.　Vancity is celebrating their 65^th anniversary with a

Fresh Air Movie at Rocky Point Park. We would love to have two people join us – one to escort Philup, our Food Bank Mascot on his debut and one to help in our tent.　 We’ll be promoting the SHARE Food Bank Fillup on July 21.

We need 11 volunteers for the 5^th Annual Boulevard 500 Show n Shine on Sunday July 17^th, 2011.　 Last year, 6,000 people from the Tri-cities and Lower Mainland attended this fun-filled family day. 　This year’s activities will include over 300 vehicles on display, the opportunity to meet Gene Simmons, Silent Auction, 50/50 raffle, trade show, pancake breakfast and sizzling BBQ lunch, a Harley-Davidson Fashion Show, Kids Play Zone and prizes awarded throughout the day.

　

SHARE has been chosen to run and receive the proceeds from the Silent Auction, 50/50 Raffle, and Kids Play Zone. Will you help? I’m looking for 8 energetic volunteers who enjoy selling 50/50 Raffle tickets, as well as one outgoing volunteer to wear be

Philup, our mascot, and 2 volunteers for the Kids Play Zone.　 All volunteers will receive a free pancake breakfast or BBQ Lunch provide by the Boulevard Casino. Please come out and enjoy this wonderful event!

　

On July 21 the

SHARE Food Bank Fill Up will take place at Coquitlam Centre from 9-9 in the parking lot at the corner of Barnet &Johnson.　 Help us set a provincial record for the most food raised in 12 hours!　 Save on Foods will be onsite selling hotdogs and they’re bringing a massive semi truck that the Tri-city community is going to fill with food.　 Steve Darling, Global TV and Virgin Radio will be at this event throughout the day!　 Starbucks will be serving coffee in the morning and Mr. Mikes will be on the BBQ flipping burgers in the afternoon. Come on down to this fun filled family day and meet Philup SHARE’s new mascot!

　

Will you help SHARE Food Bank set a provincial record?　 I’m looking for enthusiastic volunteers to participate at the weigh in station, the semi truck station, the shopping cart station, and to information station.　 　Come on down, volunteer, help us meet our goal and enjoy a hotdog or burger. Please join me at this fun-filled event!
