📚 Public Education: Newburyport Yankee Homecoming Family Day
We will be tabling for secure storage at this family-centered event during Newburyport's annual Yankee Homecoming celebration. Many local businesses, organizations and non-profits take part in Family Day fun offering free crafts, games, activities and handouts. The booth is free as long as you provide a free craft, game, activity or handout for the kids.
We are looking for volunteers to do children's craft and to talk to parents about secure storage.
Contact Ann to volunteer at ahaaser.ma@gmail.com
When? Saturday, August 2, 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM
Where? Rupert A. Nock Middle School 70 Low St, Newburyport
