It takes hundreds of volunteers to make our July 4th celebration run smoothly. And let’s face it, working together with neighbors helps strengthen our community and feels good!
Here are some easy ways you can volunteer and help our community:
- Work a short shift (or two!) to sell tickets
- Volunteer at the street dance or the parade/picnic
- Volunteer as a family (kids welcome!) or organize a group of neighbors from your street to work together
- Join a committee to help plan or organize an event. We are always looking for volunteers to join our planning committee or bring new event ideas to the celebration. We are a low-key bunch and whether you are new to the Point or a longtime resident, we welcome all!
