> Hi all,
>
> It's that time of the year again to put out to you my volunteer needs
> for our SFUSD Schools Partnership Program Special Olympics Track and
> Field Meet at Kezar stadium.
> Many of you have either volunteered before for the program or have
> expressed an interest in doing so. Last year at our track meet at
> Kezar we had 40-50 volunteers who had a great time. I hope you will
> consider volunteering again or for the first time. It is a wonderful
> opportunity to give back to the community and work with students with
> disabilities who are getting a rare opportunity to experience sports
> competition (in this case, running races, jumping, and throwing).
>
> Here are the facts:
>
> Where - Kezar Stadium, 755 Stanyan St. (at Fredrick), right off of
> Golden Gate Park.
>
> When - 9:00 am to 1:00 pm on Friday, May 15th, 2009 (during the school
> or work day). Opening ceremonies will start at 10:am.
>
> How - Just come (by 8:45 for the 9:00 am sign in and orientation for
> what job area to volunteer at) and make sure you bring a picture ID
> and be prepared to sign a legal waver (Megan's Law).
>
> What - I need 16 timers for races (800 meters, 50 meters, 100 meters,
> and shorter assisted and wheel Chair races).
> I need 15-18 people to manage the 5-6 throwing stations
> (measuring, retrieving, data keeping).
> I need 10-12 people to manage the 5-6 jumping stations
> (measuring, data keeping).
> I need 4 people to help oversee the running, throwing,
> and jumping station volunteers (for those who worked at a station last
> year and/or ready for more responsibility).
>
> And - There is a good chance we will have water and snacks for any
> volunteer (though bring something to drink and/or eat just in case).
>
> Finally - I would like to keep track of who is interested and will be
> coming so please let me know by a return e-mail or call me at
> 415-608-4974 to let me know your full name and contact information.
> With any questions regarding the ID and waver, please
> call Jessica Pullano, Outreach Manager at San Francisco School
> Volunteers, at 415-749-3700 x3034, or e-mail her at jpullano@....
> Please pass this e-mail on to anybody else you think
> might be interested. ** SFUSD students that volunteer will receive a
> letter for their community service points and college applications.
