Volunteer for Dancin' on the Avenue 2009

This year will be Dancin' on the Avenue's 14th year, and the summertime repeat of musical fun along the Avenue for around 35,000 residents and guests. Along with the music, attendees will enjoy a variety of good food and beverages being served along the Avenue. Joe Sharino and his band will be performing again, along with two other great bands. There will be a 4th stage featuring local dance performers.

Volunteers make this festival successful — over 200 volunteers participate in this festival. Dancin' on the Avenue was voted by the readers of the Willow Glen Resident as the Best Community Event for 2008 — and we could not have done it without great volunteers. The funds that are raised from Dancin' on the Avenue are used to improve our Avenue. Check out the planters on Lincoln Avenue which have been re-done — this is a direct result of the funds raised from this festival.

We are asking companies, community organizations or groups to volunteer for beverage serving during the event. Working as a team with people you know makes it fun. Ideally each group will have one point-of-contact for the team and can take responsibility for one or more beverage booths. Each beverage booth needs a minimum of 8 people to pour beverages from 5pm to 10pm. You may volunteer for Wine, Beer or Soda booths. This is a wonderful way to promote your group or business to Willow Glen. Let's talk about the best way to promote your organization.
