If you would like to volunteer, come to our meeting on Sept 15th, 7PM (call 714-2772 for directions) and step forward to be the "Sunshine Committee" Chairperson. We'd love to have you. At that time, we can discuss what we can do for others in the future. If something else interests you, please speak up. We know your talents are valuable and we'll always have a place for you in our neighborhood volunteer group.
Our ideas for the "Sunshine Committee" in the past was to have someone welcoming all new neighbors to the neighborhood with a welcoming basket with a copy of a flier outlining our FB, Website, NL, Meeting Info, and a past copy of a newsletter. Additional duties would be if members pass away or have serious illnesses, we'd send cards or drop by to connect personally. I think any of you would be wonderful at this... and the time devoted would be minimal... but would make a most positive impact.
Additionally, we are looking for individuals to sign up to be block captains, or volunteer to ask their fellow neighbors if they'd like to be the block captain. Responsibilities of a block captain are:
- Visits assigned homes (10-15) to sign residents up for the program.
- Acts as a liaison between the Coordinator and his/her area of responsibility and disseminates
- information communicated to him/her which may assist the police.
- When new residents move in, invite them to join the program.
- Hand out crime prevention literature, etc. as needed.
- Maintains regular contact with the Coordinator.
