Maryland Seafood Festival to Donate 5% of Beverage Sales to Revolution Kids

Volunteers from the Revolution Kids program will be helping out at the Maryland Seafood Festival taking place at Sandy Point Park from September 10-12, 2010. Our group will be helping to run one of the beer/soft drink tents and in return will receive 5% of the revenue brought in over the weekend. We still have a few shifts left to fill:  2 shifts are available on Saturday, September 11th from 4-9pm and there are 4 open shifts on Sunday, September 12th from 10am-3:30pm. Please come out to this great event and enjoy good food, good music, and good times and visit the beer tent often....you'll be helping out the new Revolution Kids program!

You are Invited to the Revolution Kids Volunteer Orientation Meeting

Program funds from the Governor’s Office of Crime Control and Prevention have provided the start-up costs but have not provided for complete funding of bicycle parts or adult supervisory positions.  As such, the program is on the constant search for donated bicycles and bicycle equipment.  If you have any unwanted bicycles or bicycle equipment that you would like to donate please contact info@boxofrain.org or

 443-254-0024.

Revolution Kids simply couldn't function without our tremendous volunteer support! Volunteers earn credit by the hour, which can be cashed in for used parts, frames, or even whole bikes.  We'll give you a full course in bike mechanics, and then you will help teach young people to rebuild and earn a bike to be their own! Go on fun rides and teach safe riding and environmental issues. Female and male volunteers needed. Spanish language skills or youth-work experience are helpful, but not essential.  

To learn more about the program and to become a volunteer, we invite you to join us at the Volunteer Orientation meeting on Wednesday, September 22, 2010 from 6-8pm at Annapolis Recreation &Parks Department 273 Hilltop Lane.
