Americorps Week is fast approaching! I just wanted to share some of the things that we are planning to do for this week of fun!
We are focusing on raising the community's awareness about the Americorps program. To do this we are focusing on educational events (but of course with a little fun thrown in there too) Some of the things we have planned are:
-Presentations in classes at local Universities (BYU and UVU) and presentations to the a more mature population. We plan on presenting information about Americorps at some assisted living facilities.
-Booths at grocery stores or other locations in Utah County. We hope to share some information with the community at places were they shop and visit.
-Attending city council meetings where the Mayors in Provo, Springville and Orem will sign a declaration, declaring May 10-14 Americorps Week.
-Hang up Americorps signs in stores
-A Thank You breakfast for those who support Americorps programs (United Way of Utah County)
- And finally, a fun bowling night for VISTAs and VISTA alumni
This should be a fun week! Make sure you are ready!
