We Need RochesterFest Parade Volunteers

Hello and Happy June!

We need Rochester students who will be willing to walk in the RochesterFest parade on Friday, June 26th. Yup, your friendly staff at Augsburg-Rochester has submitted a unit request for the parade and we got accepted. The staff has been busy making plans for the parade unit and all we need are students who will walk with the unit in the parade and hand out treats to the kiddies and Augsburg goodies to adults. This will be fun, but we need your help to make it memorable and festive. The parade starts at 6:15 and volunteers would need to gather at 5:30 PM.

There is a sign-up board on the bulletin board located between rooms 213 and 214 on the second level of Bethel. We are limited to 30 walkers so please sign up early! We will have T-shirts for all volunteers. Don't let the parade pass you by! Contact Dave Conrad @ 287-7791, conradd@augsburg.edu or Libby Henslin or Erika Ambourn at 288-2886, henslin@augsburg.edu or ambourne@augsburg.edu

Thank you!
