We need LOTS of Volunteers to make our annual Lyon Village July 4th Parade and Picnic a success

In the past couple of years, we had a July 4th coordinator who got several business associates to work at the event. This year, if we want to continue this great community tradition, we are going to need lots of Lyon Village residents to step up and staff it. We would like to see seasoned volunteers with historic knowledge of how to run this come back and contribute AND we need to see some fresh faces too! Please email janice.gallant@verizon.net to let me know how you can help or call 703-524-6662.

We need volunteers to staff the following activities:

Parade
We need 9 people to help our coordinator, John Carten, set up for the parade and organize the participants

Publicity
We need one volunteer to publicize the event

Decorations
We need 2 or more volunteers to decorate the park shelter

Food and Beverage Purchases
We need 2 volunteers to purchase food, drinks and other items needed for preparing and serving the food

Grill Team
We need 2 volunteers to cook the food in addition to Alan Sobba who has already volunteered (thank you!)

Food/Beverages Set-up and Serving
We need 10 volunteers to help serve the food and beverages and take cash and give change. We need volunteers for hot dog sales, beverage sales, and watermelon sales. We need someone to make signs stating how much each item costs.
