August finished up with the last concert \u201cRadical Revolution\u201d and the last movie \u201cLightyear\u201d. Radical Revolution brought in close to 350 people and the movie had over 40 people. Our food and alcohol vendors were very busy at the last concert. Total donations from the 50\/50 raffle for all 3 concerts was over $600.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– John and I had a booth at National Night Out! We shared lots of P&R information, flyers, and answered a lot of questions while supporting the efforts of D31 Foundation and our local Police Department.
– The Recreation team started in depth planning for Winterfest, Mt Storm, and other Fall activities.
– I made a lot of progress in coordinating the installation of a Bat House in one of our local parks for National Bat Week in October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-I continued working on planning a Volunteer Appreciation event for September in conjunction\u00a0with the Sandy Library.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-I connected with the Troutdale Recreation department and learned more about how they run some of their programs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

-I created the Kiddie Cross posters and distributed them around town.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-We had a successful community garden work day and garden social. I collected food from these events and was able to donate 40 pounds of food to the Sandy Action Center food bank. I also connected with the president of the Sandy Rotary Club during these events and coordinated a time for me to present to the club about volunteer opportunities our department offers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-We concluded the search for a volunteer software system! As part of a larger project to upgrade our system for intaking, training, and coordinating volunteers, this was a vital step forward. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Mt storm Instructional League registration opened! So far 21 children have registered!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
