This week’s entry is a link to another site. It’s the site of 2 potters who are traveling 1/3 of the way around the world with a potter’s wheel strapped to the roof of the car. They are doing this as a fundraiser for the Mongolian children’s charity (Mercy Corps). It’s a great story so far and it’s not too late to follow them on twitter.
Enjoy
On August 15, 2009 I will be doing one of the more fun volunteer activates that I do. I’ll be assisting the Piedmont Park Conservancy in presenting Paul McCartney to the city of Atlanta as part of the conservancies green awareness initiative.
A couple of years ago I worked a Dave Matthews Band concert in the park and had a wonderful time. It’s really a great venue for 50,000 people to get together and enjoy some music. I got to experience the concert for free by volunteering and although I did do quite a bit of work I also had quite a bit of fun.
If you can’t afford a concert ticket (and they are expensive these days), you love music or you just love to volunteer this type of work is highly recommended, one gets a different view of what goes into the making of a show. This opportunity enables me to support the park, recycling and other green initiatives and enjoy the music of someone who I’ve enjoyed since I was young. Who could ask for more?
At the time of this posting volunteers were still being sought.
