Join us for some fun and come out to volunteer for our annual Summer Games Event!
Volunteers will either be partnered with a resident to help them play the games or be placed at one of the booths to run a game. We will have a parade, music, games & more. Each volunteer gets a free t-shirt & we end the event with a BBQ picnic! Summer Games will take place RAIN OR SHINE!! All activities would be held indoors if needed due to weather.
This is a family/kid friendly opportunity!
(Volunteers must be 14 years or older to volunteer independently)
For more information, please contact Lisa Esposito at lesposito@marklund.org
