The Memory Walk activities of the Alzheimer’s Association are once again giving us some community service opportunities.
On the Saturdays August 23 and 30, there is a need for volunteers to hand out entrance-form packages to the participants.
Several of our members signed up to do that on the 23rd.
The event itself, starting at Kewalo Basin near Fisherman’s Wharf, is set for early in the morning of Sunday, September 7.
Our club has volunteered to hand out popsicles to the runners and walkers as they finish, outside the Ward Warehouse shopping center. It’s an early event and we will be needed from 6:30 a.m. until 9:30 a.m. More information on where and when to meet should be available at our September meeting, or you can call our community service coordinator, Marion Liu, at 235-7709 or President Russ Lynch at 261-2126.
‘Re-Discover Kailua’ Event
The Windward Branch of the YMCA will have a large booth at this event that runs two full days, Saturday September 13 and Sunday September 14, in Kailua District park.
We have volunteered to help man the Y booth on the Saturday morning. We’ll be working with other YMCA volunteers and Y staff to provide helpful information about the Y to large crowds of people expected to attend this event. A number of sponsoring organizations are involved as well as the Y and it is also a City & County of Honolulu event, including “Sunset in the Park” movies in the evenings.
Members will get more details by email and phone.
