We need volunteers for our Theatre Camp June 19-25 at Cascade High School! Actor Shadows - these volunteers help our actors as little or as much as needed with blocking, lines, songs, etc. You and your actor will be together all week and you will also be on stage (but in black, and 'invisible'). This is an all week commitment. Costume Assistants - if you can't dedicate an entire week, but want to help in someway we always need assistants in the costume shop. Sewing experience is not a necessity! You can be a runner, a gluer, an organizer, etc. Stage Crew - if you would like to help behind the scenes our stage manager will find a job for you! Would you like to join us this year? Please drop Maren a line! uppervalleyconnection@gmail.com Cross Country Ski and Snowshoe Volunteers
We have a need for folks to act as 'coaches' for our cross country skiers and snowshoers in January and February. No coaching experience necessary, just an ability to do the activity and a love for special needs folks. We practice in Leavenworth from 1:00 - 3:00 pm on Sundays in January and February. If you are able to commit to six practices you will receive a free season pass for the Leavenworth Winter Sports Club! If you're interested in joining the Icicle Trackers please contact Maren at uppervalleyconnection@gmail.com or (509) 888-4181 |
