      <title>October 3 2009 - Art on the Avenue Concession Sales</title>
      <description>
&lt;strong>Art on the Avenue- volunteers needed&lt;/strong>! 4-7 PM&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; The chapter will help out at the regional multicultural art and music&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; festival. We will hand out programs to visitors, watch vendors' booths if the&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; vendors need a bathroom or food break and help out with trash control in their&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; assigned block. Around 5:45p.m. we will remind vendors in their blocks that tear&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; down starts at 6 p.m. From 6-7 p.m.., we will patrol areas to make sure vendors&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; are on schedule to be off the streets no later than 7:15 p.m. We may also need&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; to help breakdown tables and stack chairs for the rental company to pick up. If&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; a vendor needs help in breaking down or packing up, we may be asked to help.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Last, but not least, we will help with trash pickup.After the event, it would be&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; fun if we could grab dinner in Del Ray for fun and fellowship.WE ARE STILL&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; LOOKING FOR A CHAIRPERSON TO HELP LEAD THIS EVENT- IF INTERESTED PLEASE &lt;a href="mailto:cd_vp@alexjaycees.org">EMAIL DIANA&lt;/a>.

      <description>
&lt;p>Are you off on Monday, September 7th for Labor Day? Or can you take off 2 hours? We REALLY need your help!! The Meals on Wheels Program for Seniors in Alexandria has called us for help on Labor Day!&lt;/p>&lt;p>The Program delivers meals Monday through Friday throughout the year to home-bound seniors over the age of 60. &lt;/p>&lt;p>The task is quite simple! &lt;/p>&lt;ol>&lt;li class="style18 style15">We meet at 10 AM &lt;/li>&lt;li class="style18 style15">We will split off into 7 cars with 2 people per car. Each car will have its own route that will need food deliveries. &lt;/li>&lt;li class="style18 style15">A second person in the car will help to run the food to the address. Simply knock on the door and pass the hot and cold food bags to a very thankful senior. &lt;/li>&lt;/ol>&lt;p>&lt;strong>We really need 14 volunteers&lt;/strong> to make this event a complete success. After the service project we will grab lunch (pay on your own) as a group.For those willing to be drivers we are working to get you a gas gift card.&lt;strong> If we do not deliver these meals the seniors will&lt;span class="style5">&lt;font color="#ff0000"> NOT get food for 3 days&lt;/font>&lt;/span> due to the holiday! &lt;/strong>PLEASE check your schedule and help! This is extremely rewarding and you will see the work that you do instantly!We will meet at 10 AM and the service project will be completed no later than noon.f you have ANY questions please email Diana at &lt;a href="mailto:CD_VP@alexjaycees.org">CD_VP@alexjaycees.org. &lt;/a>&lt;/p>
