Fair Showcases Local Volunteer Opportunities, All Ages Welcome

Hands-up

Participating organizations now added.  The Lyme-Old Lyme Girl Scouts and the Old Lyme based ‘Volunteer Connection’ is hosting a Volunteer Fair from 5:30 to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 23, in the Lyme-Old Lyme High School Commons.

The fair, which will feature more than 25 local agencies, will offer residents an opportunity to learn about different volunteer opportunities and services in the community.

Lymes’ Youth Service Bureau (LYSB) Director Mary Seidner stresses, “All ages are welcome to attend the fair.  It is not just for school- or college-age students.  This is a great opportunity to showcase under one roof the enormous range of volunteer opportunities available locally.  We’re hoping lots of people drop by to find out more.”
