Volunteers needed

The Courthouse Community Center has a need for volunteers for their Fear This: Haunted Courthouse and Jail project. Donna Farringer reports that there is a need for about 23 people--both adults and kids--to act in the haunted house. All costumes will be provided and direction will be given. If you are interested, there will be a meeting on Thursday, October 14th at 7 PM at the Courthouse. Volunteers are needed for all seven nights that the show will be going on, but you need not commit to all of them. You just might have so much fun that you want to help out all of the nights, though!
Please contact Donna at the Courthouse for more details: 518-854-7053.
