VOLUNTEERS NEEDED for EASTER EGG HUNT

Our annual TMCC events, including the Easter Egg Hunt, wouldn't be possible without the generous assistance of area residents.  Already the eggs for this year's Egg Hunt have been stuffed with candy, but now we need helpers for the day of the event. Please see the list of volunteer positions detailed below and email Activities Co-Chair Tim Louque at timnwgary@comcast.net to assist.

Saturday, March 19, 2016 / 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM Spark Park – Sinclair Elementary School Grounds

Balloon Artist’s Assistant – ONE Volunteer Needed at 8:30 AM *** Simply to keep an eye on the children in line and be sure that the artists have what they need.

Children’s Seating Area to Eat and Drink – ONE Volunteer Needed at 8:45 AM *** This person just needs to see that a rug placed on the floor is clear of foot traffic and parents know that their children can sit on the floor to eat and drink.

Greeters at the Entrance Gate – TWO Volunteers Needed at 8:45 AM *** Last year, I tried to walk up to the entry gate as much as possible. People told me that it made a big difference. Just say hello, thank you for coming and welcome, point out what is under the pavilion, explain the activities and that the Easter egg hunt does not start until 10:00.

Greeters at the pavilion – TWO Volunteers Needed at 8:45 AM *** Walk around the crowd and just direct people here and there, point out food and drinks, the children’s seating area, prize tables, Easter egg return bins, balloon artists, face painters, the playground equipment, balls and hula hoops on the basketball court and all of the information tables.
