601 Northeast 6th Street - OKC

Time to get rolling again with AIDS Walk OKC, one of my favorite events of the year is right around the corner. We need to get the save the date cards mailed out. This volunteer event is easy, we stamp cards, and stamp cards, and stamp cards. If a few people show it takes a while, but if we turn out strong it’ll take an hour!

Head into the building, sign in, hang a right, hang a left into the next hallway, keep walking and look for a sign pointing you into the room we’ll be using. Expect a pretty good turnout.

I’ll wait up front until 5:30 PM, so arrive early and you’ll have a pal to chat with until it kicks off.

601 Northeast 6th Street - OKC

Here we go with volunteer event number two. AIDS Walk OKC is one of my favorite organizations, worked with them for years. I’m on one of the committees and would love to invite you to join me for this meeting. I imagine you’re giddy with excitement as to what we’ll be doing, right?

Here’s the plan:
Arrive at the American Red Cross building just before 5:30p on July 14th.
Get buzzed in and get signed in.
Walk towards your right a bit and look for a hallway on your left.
Follow the hallway until you see a little sign that says, “AIDS Walk OKC.”
Help stuff/stamp envelopes for the mass mail-out.

I’d love to have a full house here, the more who show, the faster we knock this mailing out. Expect to work a couple hours, tops.

Do you have questions? Shoot an email to rexbarrett@loveokc.com.

Thank you so much for helping with deadCENTER! We're going to have a great time kicking off this film festival. Make sure to wear comfortable clothing, shoes that don't stop, and spray yourself down with some sunblock.

Please meet me at 6:00p just in front of Red Prime Steak between 4th and 5th streets on Broadway. (see what I look like at http://facebook.com/rexbarrett) There will be about 20 of us helping through the evening and I'll pass out assignments as people arrive. Please be flexible through the evening! Some tasks include setting up chairs, monitoring needs of festival attenders, running a very light security detail for a street performer, working with the family of the Kings of Leon, and tons of other stuff we'll only discover as the night goes on.

We will host the event between 4th and 5th streets on Broadway in downtown OKC. Your best bet, I learned from last year, is to find parking along either 4th or 5th, just off of Broadway, at a meter. Don't worry, they'll be free after 6:00p, just for you.

The film actually begins at 9:00p and will last 87 minutes. Then we'll tear down, clean up, and sweat just a touch.

If your status as a volunteer has changed email me right away!

Oh yeah, I'll give you the four film tickets AND a deadCENTER t-shirt when we meet up on Wednesday, June 8th!

Working Together,
Rex B.]]>user@domain.combenefit2011-05-26T00:26:35-05:00http://loveokc.com/blog/files/party-rococo.html#unique-entry-id-1http://loveokc.com/blog/files/party-rococo.html#unique-entry-id-1
Here’s the deal, we’re raising money for disaster relief, we’re eating fine food, we’re sipping fine drinks, and we’ll party into the evening. Invite your friends and tell your families you’ll be out all night because we’re shutting the Penn location down on June 2nd.

Have questions? Shoot an email to me right now.]]>user@domain.comvolunteer opp2011-05-25T23:14:04-05:00http://loveokc.com/blog/files/001-deadcenter.html#unique-entry-id-0http://loveokc.com/blog/files/001-deadcenter.html#unique-entry-id-0
