{PBJFlorida} FW: Tabling for the Warped coming

Hi Everyone…..

 

Here is another opportunity to table for Rhythm N' Rights.  Rhythm N' Rights (RN'R) has permission to have info / action tables for the Upcoming Warped tour.  Rhythm N' Rights uses concerts and music as a way to foster outreach by local volunteers and activists to engage and encourage people in their community to take action and stand up for human rights and social justice.

Check out the Florida dates…..

 

Orlando - 27 July

 

West Palm Beach - 28 July

 

St Petersburg - 29 July


R N'R can have 2 volunteers.
Spots are filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
This is ALL day: arrival ~ 9 am, and take down ~ 6 pm
I need full names, email address, and phone # of each volunteer in order to sign them up

Transportation and parking are on you own.
Each volunteer will get a wrist band.  If you want more than two volunteers, a person holding a ticket can turn that ticket in for a wristband.

If you can volunteer, send me and email (or simply "Reply" to this one), with the date, city, and tour (Warped)
I must have the full name (that means first and last) of each volunteer and their email address.

If you are not available, please forward this on to other responsible persons you know who may be able to help

YES having petitions at concerts really works.
