Volunteer at the Arlington Civitans Garage Sale - Friday Setup
About the event
Volunteers are needed at the Community Garage Sale, organized by the Arlington Civitans! This event is both a volunteer opportunity and an important fundraiser for the Jaycees - the Civitans pay our organization for every volunteer hour\! On Friday night\, volunteers help with setup of the snack bar\, posting signage\, and other duties as needed. This event is held on the first weekend of each month between April and November. (volunteers are also needed for cleanup on Saturday afternoon - see separate Meetup event)
As a bonus, if you volunteer for at least 5 hours at the Civitans garage sales, you are eligible for a FREE Arlington Jaycees Annual Membership!
The Garage Sale is held in the Parking Garage located behind Washington & Liberty High School. It is a 10 minute walk from the Ballston-MU metro station. Parking is available on level A of the garage or on North 15th Street, between Quincy and Stafford Streets, and along Quincy Street. Walk into the parking garage and proceed to the Level B concession stand -- ask for Martin\, Cathy\, or Paul. Make sure to sign in. Please wear sturdy (closed toe) shoes\, and bring work gloves if you have them. Also dress for the weather as this event takes place rain or shine.
Proceeds from the monthly garage sale (from sales at the concession stand and vendor fees) benefit the Arlington Civitans, a non-profit organization committed to helping people with developmental disabilities. For more information, visit the [Arlington Civitans](http://civitan.org/) website.
