Riverlink Needs Volunteers for Upcoming Events

Time to seriously talk about festival volunteering   
submitted by Dave Russell RiverLink Director of Volunteer Services

  

Spring arrives with the Erigenia bulbosa in Western North Carolina, and with those pretty white flowers come festivals. RiverLink needs volunteers to man tables, cook hotdogs and other assorted activities this Spring.  

Here's a rundown of the things we have going on: 

Saturday, April 16 is Asheville's Earth Day celebration at Pack Square Park. RiverLink will perform a community service project in the morning (cleaning invasives from the Ross Creek raingarden from 9 a.m. - 11 a.m.) and will need volunteers for that. We'll also need some volunteers to sit with the RiverLink table. That should fun -- Food! Live music! Beer! People-watching!  

Saturday, April 23, 10 a.m. - approximately 2 p.m. is RiverLink's Earth Day Celebration at The RiverLink Sculpture and Performance Plaza. I think we'll need 20-25 volunteers and a truck to pull this one off. Anyone have any experience assembling rainbarrels? Cooking hot dogs?

Saturday, May 14, 10 a.m. - 3 p.m.  is the Fins & Gills Classic Fishing Tournament at the Asheville Outdoor Center. We will need volunteers to do everything from taking fish off hooks to cooking hot dogs to parking cars. It'll take at least 30 volunteers for this one, but it's fun.

If you are interested in volunteering at any (or all!) of these events, please get in touch. You probably get tired of me saying this, but it's true: We can't do it without you.
