 Incredibowl Committee Volunteers

Do you dream of a world without violence and want to create a safer Halton community?  Do you have amazing organizational skills, want to develop your project management skills or love to connect with others?  We need your help!

We are looking for some Incredibowl individuals to volunteer to participate on SAVIS’s Incredibowl committee.  Incredibowl is SAVIS’s primary fundraiser and it helps to build awareness for our services in the community. Our 5th annual 10-pin bowling event will take place on Saturday, April 16th, 2011 from 2-5pm at Burlington Bowl.

We need help with:
- Recruiting teams & building community spirit
- Connecting with amazing companies in Halton to attract Sponsors
- Co-ordinating the Silent Auction and requesting prizes
- Building relationships with local politicians, to help develop our Souvenir Event Program
- Spreading the Word about this family friendly, fun-filled event

You can be a full fledged committee member or simply help out in specific areas that fit your area of expertise and the amount of time you have to offer.

Why do we need your help?
In the 2009-2010 fiscal year SAVIS’s kind staff and caring volunteers served the community through:

One of the biggest challenges SAVIS faces is chronic underfunding which leads to understaffing and waiting lists. That’s why this year we’re getting a head start on planning Incredibowl 2011!

Here’s what you will get out of volunteering :
- An opportunity to connect with other Incredibowl people
- A chance to build your network & develop/hone your organizational skills & project management skills
- Most importantly, you get to feel good about making a difference in your community.
