Volunteer for Cultivate KC - This Weekend!
Are you looking for a way to volunteer and help out Cultivate KC?
Courtney sent this email and I wanted to share with you:
Cultivate KC will be operating a beverage tent at Boulevardia at Crown Center this year on Friday, June 14th and Saturday, June 15th. A portion of proceeds from the event itself and all gratuity earned at our tent will support our organization! If you know of any individuals who would like to volunteer for a few hours serving beer and cocktails (pre-made), I've attached the link for the sign-up HERE. This is a super fun event, and anyone who volunteers gets a free t-shirt, free admission to Boulevardia the day they volunteer, as well as a free ticket to use the other day, or to give away to a friend. It's going to be a great time!
Please use the sign up sheet above if you would like to help out!
