I’m continuing to work out details for securing the community center for our dark café event, but there are many other areas that need volunteers to take charge of. Ideally, we need two volunteers per area. Please email me back with the area or areas that you are interested in handling and we’ll chat more about specifics. This is a huge undertaking, so if we aren’t able to secure enough volunteers, we can maybe think about hosting a smaller fundraising event and revisit the dark café when enough people have the time and energy for it.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><ul style='margin-top:0in' type=disc><li class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:-15.6pt;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3'>Food: this would involve catering, plates, linens, all the moving parts that go along with serving the actual food for the event.<o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:-15.6pt;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3'>Decorations: this would involve all the planning for decorations, items needed for activities etc.<o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:-15.6pt;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3'>Sales and marketing: this would involve spreading the word, constructing flyers, and coordinating logistics of ticket sales<o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:-15.6pt;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3'>Event details: this entails planning out the flow of the evening, including activities.<o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:-15.6pt;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3'>Volunteers: coordinating how many volunteers we need for the event, and being a point person for them.<o:p></o:p></li></ul><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>P.S.
