Sidewalk Chalk needed for KidFest!

Posted by: Erin

NPYP is asking members to donate sidewalk chalk at the November Mixer at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, November 2, 2011 at Buffalo Wild Wings. The sidewalk chalk will be used at KidFest & Film.

NPYP has been given permission from the KidFest Planning Committee to use the track at Heron Creek Middle School for sidewalk chalk. We need chalk! This fun activity will provide children a creative outlet and give parents time to meet and mingle with local business representatives.

Volunteers are also needed for KidFest, which will be held on Saturday, November 12, 2011 from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. Let us know if you’d like to volunteer by sending an e-mail to Erin Bryce, NPYP vice president, at ebryce@cityofnorthport.com.

Please consider bringing sidewalk chalk to the November Mixer! Thank you for your support.

NPYP is going to host a booth at this year’s Kidfest and Film on Saturday November 13 from 2PM-6PM.

We are looking for volunteers to help out at the booth. If we have enough volunteers, we can take shifts so we won’t have to be there all day. Anyone who volunteers at the booth is welcome to place brochures and marketing materials for their business on the table!
