Consider Volunteering

Volunteering is a great way to network, fill up a jobless day, maintain or learn new job-related skills AND do something amazing for your community! Many of us neglected "giving back" when we were busy with full-time jobs; now there's no excuse!

Drake is looking for volunteers to help at the Des Moines Arts Festival, June 26-28. Call John Brown at 271-3378 or e-mail john.brown@drake.edu.

The Golden Circle Games are on June 17 at the Fairgrounds. http://ypcdsm.rainsongpro.com/index.cfm?fa=programs.view&programID=90 Please contact Ashley Okland, GCG Chair at aokland@ypcdsm.com with questions.

The Hy-Vee Triathlon is on June 28. http://www.hy-veetriathlon.com/index.php?topic=volunteers If you have questions, contact Sheila Laing at 515-267-2825 or slaing@hy-vee.com. They need volunteers for the week leading up to the event AND for race day.

This is a short list of volunteer opportunities coming up, so use Google/Yahoo! Search to find additional ways to get involved.
