Event Details

Description

The Financial Literacy Committee will be hosting a booth at the Bear Paw Festival on July 12-14, 2013

First – We need volunteers!!  The Bear Paw festival is a fun-filled family-fun event sponsored by the Chugiak-Eagle River Chamber of Commerce.  This year’s event will be July 12- 14, noon to 10pm Friday and Saturday, and noon to 6pm on Sunday.  With 3 hour shifts, we need just 9-10 people to fill all the time slots. If you can help with even a couple of hours please contact the society at akcpa@ak.net.

Second – We need protection!  We are looking for a 10’x10’ EZ-Up tent to put up for the weekend to protect us from the inevitable wet stuff that sometimes falls from the sky in July.  If you have one, let Linda know.

Third – We need sponsors! When we were at Bear Paw two years ago, several of the local CPA firms came forward to underwrite the US Savings Bonds that we gave away.  This year we want to order piggy banks and some other fun promotional items to give away, but as you probably know, we don’t have any money in the budget.  Your sponsorship entitles you to prominent signage in our booth during Bear Paw, print recognition in the newsletter, and our undying appreciation!
