Dear Rebecca, Jen & Heather, We would love to honor all that you all did in response to Hurricane Sandy at our Second Annual Ulster Volunteers Day this year. Please see more info below. Thanks so much, Beth Let’s Celebrate Our Volunteers! SECOND ANNUAL ULSTER VOLUNTEERS DAY at the Hudson Valley Harvest Festival Saturday and Sunday, September 21-22nd, 2013 Ulster County Fairgrounds, New Paltz Please join UlsterCorps, Family of Woodstock and Cornell Cooperative Extension of Ulster County in celebrating our community’s volunteers. Nominate volunteers from your agency - they’ll be honored at the Harvest Festival, receive free admission, a chance to win great raffle prizes & more! Contact UlsterCorps for more information: ulstercorps.org [email protected] 845-481-0331 More info: We can cover admission costs for 5 volunteers per agency. You are welcome to nominate more, but you must cover their admission costs ($5 per person; kids under 12 are free). Volunteers will be recognized from the Harvest Festival main stage on Saturday September 21st (Sunday rain date). We will ask volunteers in attendance to stand and be recognized. We will need the names of the volunteers you would like to be honored, as well as a photo and brief description (one sentence - how long they’ve volunteered/their biggest impact) by September 1, 2013. If individual photos are not available, a group photo of your volunteers is also welcome. Panels with the photos of the Guests of Honor will be displayed at the UlsterCorps pavilion throughout the Harvest Festival. These panels will be assembled by SUNY New Paltz students at the 9/11 Volunteer Fair. We will have a list of the names submitted by local agencies at the entry gate. Only those on the list (nominated by their agency) will be eligible for free admission. Each volunteer nominated by their agency will receive a Guest of Honor button and a free raffle ticket to win prizes donated by local businesses. Raffle prize winners will be announced during the recognition ceremony. Free refreshments will also be available in the UlsterCorps pavilion for Guests of Honor.
