Summer of Service set to begin By SARA BALLARD On Monday, June 22, President Barack Obama will announce the launch of the Summer of Service. It's a national call to action; based on his belief that volunteerism is a part of the solution. Nationwide or in your backyard, he's asking us to do what we can. And we're making it possible for you to get involved in being part of the solution during the Volunteer Center's Summer of Service from June 22 to September 11. Summer is an important time for vol- unteerism: students can get extended learning op- portunities, families can get outside for outdoor community work, and summer vol- unteerism is a great way to find new friends and new activities in your community. And talk about cost-friendly, most activities are free and volunteering at local fairs and festivals will often get you a discount on food, tickets or entry fees. The best part is that volunteering can help you see first-hand the problems people in Mason County are facing and inspire you to take part in more ways you can help. As President Obama said, "We are the change we have been waiting for." So, here's how to get started making a change during Summer of Service: Join us at our Summer of Service Kick-Off Party from 4 to 7 p.m. Wednesday, July 8, at Heritage Park on Capitol Lake in Olympia. Learn more about the Summer of Service, meet people from organizations that could use your help, and learn how to compete for prizes for best volunteer group, best volunteer family and best Summer of Service project. You also can sign up for two important Summer of Service days. Each day will focus on a specific issue and participants will be working on theme-related projects throughout the community. Each day also will include options for youth and family volunteering. All you need to do is sign up for the day, we'll tell you where and when to report to work. The Summer of Service days for 2009 are Saturday, August 1, which will focus on the environment, and Friday, September 11, which will focus on education. If these activities don't fit your busy summer schedule or don't match our interests, we'll have plenty of other ways for you to get in the swim of service during our Summer of Service. For instance, you can join in on activities at the United Way of Mason County's Day of Caring on Tuesday, June 23. Find out more about how you can help by calling the United Way office at 426-4999 or visiting their Web site at www.unitedwaymasonco.org. And your Summer of Service can include volunteering at events such as Celebrate Hoodsport (July 3-5), the Mason County Fair (July 24- 26), or the Taste of Hood Canal (August 8). We also will have a list of one-time or continuing opportunities from various organizations in the region. Look for information about all of our Summer of Service activities at the kick-off party or on our Web site at www. vol u nteer.ws. All summer long we will be interested in finding and promot- ing more ways for people to get involved. If you are the volunteer coordinator or executive director of an organization with summer volunteer events already on your schedule, we'd love to promote them at the kick-off party, through our Web site and through our me- dia partners. Simply send a descrip- tion of your event to Frieda Ray at frieda@volunteer.ws. Sara Ballard is the executive director of the Volunteer Center of Lewis, Mason and Thurston Counties.
