2017 Baby Buggy Walk - Fun Zone Volunteer

Saturday, October 28th, 2017 from 9:00am to 12:00pm (CT)

About

Tragically in San Antonio, we have too many babies die before they reach their first year. Of the babies born in 2014, 160 babies did not live to celebrate their first birthday.  The San Antonio Metropolitan Health District Healthy Start Program will host its 3rd Annual Baby Buggy Walk in the Park 5K & Health/Baby Expo to raise awareness about infant mortality. The event serves to raise awareness about healthy lifestyles, healthy families, and healthy babies. 

Although there are a variety of different volunteer opportunities at this event, I have decided to stay as a group and volunteer with kids (There is a description of what we will be doing below)! If you would like to volunteer by handing out balloons, water, and/ or information, please let me know (this 
link has all the other volunteer opportunities - Do NOT sign up on that website, just contact me if you're interested in anything else). I can't guarantee you will get the position you desire, but I will try my best to accommodate to your interest. By signing up (through this website (Givepulse)), you are committing to volunteer from 9:00 am - 12:00 pm on October 28th as a Fun Zone volunteer (unless we have talked separately). 

Fun Zone Volunteer Description (9 positions available)

It’s all fun and games in here! These volunteers will provide assistance and direction to game participants, cheer and encourage the children as they participate, ensure the area is safe and clean, help operate any games or activities and of course, help wrangle the kiddos.


It does take about 15-20 minutes to get to the event so we will be meeting in front of Witt Center at 8:30 am on October 28th (transportation will be provided). I would clear your schedule from 8:30 until 12:30. I do understand that you are a student and would like to get back to campus asap to study (or do whatever). I will try my very best to leave promptly at noon. 

The spots will be available to the first  9 students who sign up. So do it now! After signing up on GivePulse (this website), please fill out this Google Form. This link just asks for t-shirt sizes (Yes, you get an awesome TUVAC t-shirt)!

If sign-up is full on Givepulse, just send me an e-mail and I'll add you to the waitlist!

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out and ask! You can contact me, Joshua Lee, at (503) 888-5641 or jlee8@trinity.edu .

I hope to see you bright and early on October 28th!
