VOLUNTEERS NEEDED – TOLL GATE – Sunday, August 20
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED – TOLL GATE – Sunday, August
20
It’s
that time of year once again when we are looking for a few volunteers to assist
with the Toll Gate during the Trinity Festival. We truly appreciate those that
have volunteered in the past and those that have already agreed to again for
this coming weekend. However most of the time slots on Sunday remain open and we
need to fill them in order to make the most of the Toll Gate collections. We
understand that several folks may be unavailable, working or have other
commitments however if you have an hour or two to spare please let us
know.
The
funds collected specifically from the Toll Gate assists the Town with the
purchase of the Fireworks that makes for such a wonderful display to end a great
weekend. Sadly if we are unable to fill the remaining time slots the fireworks
will need to be scaled back for 2018 or even cancelled.
Please touch base with Sherry to see what time slots are available
and to assist us with ensuring we remain being able to have the best fireworks
display – call or text her at 709-464-7148
