We Need Another 12 Volunteers, especially for Friday, August 10!
Many Unions have sent in their contributions—Thank You—but a few more donations would be helpful.
The application fee is $295 but other expenses include approximately $150 for fair tickets, $155 for printing handouts, and $100 for misc. expenditures so a total of $700.
The Labor-Dem Work Group is contributing a minimum of $75.
I am suggesting that any Union that wants to participate in the Skagit County Fair “Labor Tent” that they contribute $75.
The Labor Tent is required to be staffed from Wednesday, August 8 to August 11, 10 am to 10 pm.
Fair schedule is see below: 3—4 hour shifts each day, so for 4 days we will need approximately 6 people per day.
Contact me, if you or someone else will take on a shift regardless of donation at 360-724-4913 or email at cedarwaxwings@gmail.com.
In Solidarity,
Janet McKinney

Skagit County Fair Volunteer Schedule: Wed., Aug. 8 to Sat., Aug. 11
As soon as you find a volunteer for a shift, email me back the information so I can record the volunteer’s name, phone number, email, union, and the shift. You don’t have to be a union member.
I will keep track of all the shifts that are taken by volunteers and keep sending out the updated schedule table.
There might be conflicts if more than 4 people sign up for a shift so please get the volunteer’s shift to me as soon as possible.
I need the volunteers’ phone numbers and emails so that if someone has an emergency or problem, I can call people and make other arrangements.
I would like 2 volunteers per shift, but one person is ok and there is only room for 4 people at a time.
Janet McKinney will be the point person for the volunteers to call in case there is a problem: 360-724-4913 or 360-770-3512 or cedarwaxwings@gmail.com
