General Info
With all of the rain that we are receiving, parking will be determined on Sunday. Parking volunteers will be on-site to assist. Handicap parking will be available on the south side of the Pavilion. Please avoid parking in any barricaded areas.

The State Bank GIVES truck will have a snack and drink available to you before or after volunteering if you choose. There will also be cookies provided by Off the Rails Food Trolley (handed out at the GIVES truck.)
