Enjoy the Holiday Lighting Festival as a volunteer
A great opportunity for you exists to help jump start the holiday season. On Friday November 20, at City Hall Plaza the Downtown Holiday Lighting Festival will take place.
This is a great event that brings the community together. There will be entertainment, food, decorated trees from the neighborhood associations, a visit with Santa, goodie bags for the first 1000 children, an opportunity to meet some of the Wizards’ players, free movies, popcorn and crafts for the children.
Activities will take place at City Hall Plaza. The event is planned to start at 4pm and end at 7pm with the lighting of the mayor’s tree.
In order for this event to be successful we need volunteers. Volunteers act as greeters and direct visitors to various activities. They guide guest through the display of trees decorated by the neighborhood associations.
Other volunteers will see that those guest watching movies have popcorn and still others will help give cotton candy to the children. Some volunteers will help guide the line of children and families waiting to see Mr. & Mrs. Clause. For those volunteers who like to ham-it-up, there are opportunities for you to dress in costume and visit with the guests.
There is also a need for volunteers to help with the various costumed characters and entertainers. These are just a few of the many volunteer opportunities available.
To volunteer or to find out more information please contact Diane at 913-371-3674 or a dhentges@unitedway-wyco.org.
