VIP Special Projects Some upcoming events!

[VIP Special Projects]

Hello all,

Below are a few of the larger volunteer opportunities coming up. Don't
worry, there will be more events to come :)

 If you would like to volunteer for one of these events, please let me know!

Bottenfield Elementary School Annual Carnival
When: Saturday, February 19, 4:30pm – 7:30pm
where: Bottenfield Elementary, a Champaign public school (about 1.5 miles
from campus on S. Prospect Ave)
Volunteers will set up, run games, and break them down again for storage.
2-4 UI students are put in teams to run the games in each classroom, so it’s
a fun way to meet other UI students or do a service project with a group of
friends! Pizza will be served at the school for volunteers.  Volunteers are
asked to wear UI gear!
Transportation: Bottenfield Parents can shuttle students from 3 shuttle
points:  E38 down by Hopkins, College Court, & ISR.  The shuttles will start
at 4:15pm.


Boy Scout Merit Badge Seminar
When: Saturday, March 5th 7am-5pm (lunch provided)
Where: Holy Cross Grade School
The Merit Badge Seminar is sponsored by Holy Cross Boy Scout Troop 9 which
has been hosting this event for the past 20 years.  This is one of the
largest merit badge seminars in the state of Illinois and attracts scouts
from all over the state.  We will have about 500 scouts attending a variety
of classes designed so the boys can work on merit badges.  We have classes
on law enforcement; public speaking, astronomy; local government; first aid,
finger printing, fire safety, electricity, economics, fishing, computers,
plumbing, veterinary medicine, dentistry -- and much more.   We need
volunteers to assist in some of the classrooms; serve as hall monitors or
help with entering the completed courses into our computer system.
Transportation: TBD
