[act-ma] Volunteer for GLAD in Provincetown on 7/26 (travel provided)

[Robbie Samuels]

Hi there,


I'm posting this on behalf of my day job at Gay & Lesbian Advocates &
Defenders. Please share this volunteer opportunity...


 *This year’s GLAD Summer Party is going to be a huge celebration! It’s
coming up on Saturday, July 26** in Provincetown*. I hope you and your
friends are interested and available to offer time, energy and enthusiasm
as a volunteer. *Read on for travel options!*



We've got lots of volunteer opportunities - ranging from being really
outgoing to working behind the scenes - we need bartenders, catering
assistants, registration greeters, auction assistants, set-up, clean-up,
etc! To help me match your interest to what positions are available *please
fill out the volunteer registration form online: *
*www.glad.org/Events/eventVolunteer.php*
<http://www.glad.org/Events/eventVolunteer.php>



The event is from 4pm-7pm. Set-up starts at 2pm and with everyone's help we
should be done with clean-up by 8:30pm.



 *Summer Party features:*

*Celebrity Auctioneer Kate Clinton

*Cocktails courtesy of Bacardi, Barefoot Wine & Bubbly and Sam Adams
*Awesome Auction - win gift certificates for restaurants, travel packages,
massages & more! Online bidding available – you don't have to be present to
win! Place a proxy bid if you can’t attend: www.biddingforgood.com/glad.


*How much for all this?* Volunteers attend for free. Tickets are $75 ($85
at the door) - includes 3 hours of open bar, food and fun. Tickets may be
purchased online <https://www.glad.org/event/14SP>.



*Need assistance getting there??*

We have arranged for a van to assist volunteers who have limited
transportation options. These *free *shuttles leave from the Boston area at
8:15 am on Saturday and returns around 11pm that evening. You’ll have a
couple of hours to roam around Ptown before your volunteer shift begins.
 Please mention on the form that you'd like to be added to the Volunteer
Van list.


*Thank you!* Your generous support plays a vital role in our ability to
take great leaps forward for the LGBT and HIV+ communities of New England.
GLAD has been fighting for equal rights from its inception in 1978 - with
such landmark victories as the *Goodridge* that brought equal marriage
rights to same-sex couples in Massachusetts and was intimately involved in
last year’s DOMA victory.

*Questions?* Contact me, Rebecca Glucklich, Special Events Coordinator, at
rglucklich at glad.org.

I hope you can join us! And bring friends!


Best,

Robbie
