A Message from the Event Organizers:
Just wanted to extend a very heartfelt thank you to all of you 170+ wonderful volunteers, and your families, who helped make yesterday’s Carnival an amazing success! We had almost 1,800 folks come through, and it took each of you to make it happen. Special thanks to the folks who stayed longer than planned and stepped in where they saw need. I love our Harding/El Cerrito community. We did it!
If you have any feedback/ideas from yesterday, regarding your experience volunteering (what folks liked/didn’t like at your booth, suggestions for improvements) or your family’s experience at the event, please share them. You can reply to me directly, or add them to this sheet. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WEKdr6Rda6iK3lhixQ8B3wFX-FFBZ55MpiZksvITIGM/edit?usp=sharing
Thanks again!
If you were inspired by your experience and know you’d like to join the 2024 planning committee, lead a (new or existing) booth next year, or construct the next epic game, we’d love to hear from you.
