VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!

The Boys & Girls Club of Lynden has been given a fantastic opportunity to have a food booth at the Northwest Washington Fair in Lynden August 16 to 21. We need volunteers like YOU for this to be a success!

Shifts are flexible and gate admission to the Fair for the day is included. If you are willing & able to lend a hand for a few hours or more please let me know ASAP and together we will find a shift that works for you!

It should be a lot of fun and most important this is a fund raising opportunity which helps provide a positive place for kids every day – after school – and during the summer right here in Lynden at a very affordable price.

Questions? Contact Club Director Audrey Seaholm at aseaholm@whatcomclubs.org or by phone at (360) 354-9959.
