VIP Special Projects Fun Fest & Bags Tournament

[VIP Special Projects]

Hi Volunteers!!!!
Thanks to all those who came to last Fridays' event with Read Across
America. It turned out to be a great success! This week we have two events:


Westview Elementary's Annual Fun Fest Carnival
Friday, March 13th
5:00pm - 8:15pm (meet up at 4:30 at the Union)

Remember how exciting going to the fair was when you were a kid? They need
students to help run carnival games (balloon toss, cake walk, face painting,
fishing pond, etc) for an elementary school carnival.  All volunteers will
be provided a meal and be asked to run simple games and pass out prizes.  The
volunteering won't start until 6:00. However, they are giving us pizza and
drinks before we volunteer with the kids.  VIP Friendship will also be there
with us!

The Don Moyer Boys and Girls Club of Champaign - Urbana is hosting a
fundraising event on *March 13th and 14th* at the Lincoln Square Mall in
Urbana. *VIP Special Projects* is looking for volunteers to work
registration and scoreboards for this event. If you choose to volunteer, you
get to enter the tournament for free...so there is no reason not to!

Are you interested in a Bags tournament but do not want to/ don't have the
time to volunteer?* Get a few of your friends together and enter the
tournament!* It is only $20/team, and all of the proceeds go to the Boys and
Girls Club! It's a great way to contribute to the community and have fun
while doing it!

he tournament is held at Lincoln Square Mall (Joe's Brewery has a FREE
trolley that will take you right to 88 and Broadway which is located right
near the tournament, so you don't even have to drive!) There are a few
different team league divisions, with details outlined in the attached Press
Release. First place prizes include cash prizes, so you are definitely going
to want to play! Second and third place teams get the chance to win custom
bag sets and other great prizes!

Some of you may notice - this is the weekend of the basketball tournament,
but do not worry, we were thinking that too! There will be big-screen T.V.'s
playing the games, and once again, you will be right next to 88 & Broadway,
so you can stop in to catch the games there.

If you are looking to get more involved with* VIP Special Projects*, this is
an awesome opportunity. It is an extremely easy way to get involved, and we
are not asking a lot of you! So if you are interested in any of these
events, invite some friends, and help out!

E-mail us back and let us know if you would like to participate, remember
that *THERE ARE SEMESTER INCENTIVES!! *Donate your time and volunteer with
Special Projects, and you will be rewarded!
