What’s Coming Up

Local Adult Community National Night Out - Volunteers Needed!

Tuesday, August 6th, 2019

The community is located in South Littleton (details will be provided upon sign up). We need volunteers who will be able to help us set-up the event, put out tables and chairs, cook and serve, man booths and oversee the games, help with the marketing, contact our special guests and clean up when it is all done.

The average age in the community is 74 and there are approximately 500 residents in the community. We had a great showing at last year’s “Country Hoedown”. We would like to see an increase of at least 50% in participation this year.

This year’s theme will be “Community Superheroes”. We will be honoring our Littleton Superheroes: South Metro Fire & Rescue, Littleton Police Officers, Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Deputies and our local Ambulance Drivers.

All attendees will be asked to wear an outfit that has something to do with Superheroes and the games we will have available will all have a Superhero theme.

HOW CAN I HELP?

Our Need for YOU

We need a virtual army of volunteers and donors to do what we do. Maybe you can help with a particular trade or specialty? Maybe you can sit with an elderly person for an hour every week to visit or read a book? Maybe you can provide a bed for a single mother to give her child? Or, maybe you have the financial resources to be able to give regularly to this ministry?
