Howdy folks!

Once again, it's time to put on your volunteer cap and give the fine folks at Sunday Parkways a hand.

If you've never volunteered at one of these events before, I highly recommend it. Not only is it a lot of fun, it's a great people-watching event. So if you want to help out, please follow these steps:

1) Click here

2) Sign up for either: Intersection Supehero - Wilson High School; 9:45-1:00 or Intersection Supehero - Wilson High School; 12:30-4:00 (Or both if that's what you want)

This will put you very close to the No Pity Van, which will be at the "Vermont/Wilson" marketplace.

3) When Registering, enter Timbers Army as your organization.

4) On July 22nd please check in at the No Pity Van before or after your shift. NOTE: This is NOT the official sign-in. You will still need to sign in at the official Sunday Parkways tent. We are doing this to help relieve the amount of stress on the official Parkways team. They have enough on their plate without having to track down who volunteered on behalf of the Army

5) OPTIONAL BUT HELPFUL - Once you register, please drop me a line on when/where you plan to volunteer. This will mostly make it easier for me to confirm the number of volunteers matches up with the sign-in sheets.

Please keep in mind, you'll be standing the sun for the majority of the day so bring sunblock and plenty of fluids. Water guns are also highly encouraged. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BRING ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES (Caps Intentional) This is a family-friendly, alcoholic-free event, close to school grounds, with roaming police officers. Not only will you get in a lot of trouble, but it also reflects poorly on the TA as a whole, so please don't try it.

I think that covers everything, but if you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

Thanks all!
