Oct. 31 ~ Volunteers Needed for the 2018 “Read to Your Child” Halloween Book Giveaway

Volunteers are needed on Wednesday, October 31! 

Just an hour or two would be a great help (and a lot of fun) if you cannot attend for the whole time.

The “Read To Your Child” Halloween Book Giveaway is one of our absolutely wonderful annual events. The Community Support Network coordinates this collaboration of organizations as part of the Grass Valley Downtown Association’s “Safe Trick or Treat” event. Last year we gave away 827 books, including Spanish/bilingual books. Photos used with parental permission.

We warmly welcome volunteers to help with…

  • setup & cleanup
  • permission forms for photography
  • photography
  • handing out books
  • filling out bookplates
  • directing the flow of the crowd

Email Ned Russell at nedrussell@pacbell.net to sign up.
