Twin Cities Veg Fest is almost here! Many of you have signed up to volunteer, and we just have a few volunteer spots left, including sign language interpreter and cleanup help on both days.
Review the volunteer schedule and instructions and, if you like, attend one of the optional volunteer orientations. More details below!
Another big way to help out with the upcoming festival is to join us for an evening of bag stuffing and more on Wednesday, October 26. RSVP on the Facebook event page or email Unny if you’d like to help out with that.
Also, put the Vegan Thanksgiving Potluck on your volunteer radar. It’s coming up on Saturday, November 19 from noon to 3pm. Save the date and sign up to volunteer today. We need lots of enthusiastic volunteers to make this annual event a big success for our community.
Best wishes,
Justin Leaf, Communications & Events Coordinator
