Good Neighbor Initiative Block Party Volunteer Sign-Up
Join us in celebrating the Chapel Hill and Carrboro community! Everyone is gathering at the GNI block party to welcome new folks to the neighborhood and kick off the school-year. We'll be celebrating on Thursday, September 6th at the Hargraves Center! The party runs from 5:00 to 8:30 but opportunities are available to assist before, during, and after on the day of the event. Please enter your name under the role(s) and time slot(s) you would like to help out with!
If you represent a group/organization and would like to commit a number of members to help without having folks sign up individually, you can type in the name of your group into each slot that you'd like to commit your group to covering. We especially encourage groups of folks to sign up to facilitate Jeopardy as a team- it's a super fun way of connecting with a lot of folks while also learning trivia.
