To get to the Tempe Beach Park, exit the hotel heading toward the sidewalk along Rio Salado Parkway then walk west along Rio Salado Parkway toward Mill Avenue. Take the second crosswalk to cross Rio Salado Parkway at Mill Avenue. Once crossed, follow the sidewalk to the park entrance. There will be a Traffic Officer and festival goers around to offer general assistance. Please coordinate with others using the hotel for drop offs or reach out to Scott Tokunaga, he has volunteered to meet people who would like assistance to the  Ohana Village. Scott would appreciate knowing when paratransit is schedule to drop off so he can plan his walk accordingly. Any advanced information will help to make everyone’s day joyful.

> Volunteer should also plan to meet at our information table at the Ohana Village. I will be giving people a rough idea of when to show up to volunteer. It looks like everyone will be on target for giving one hour of their time. Be on the look out for communication from me.
