<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Oregonians –<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are excited to be co-hosting the national conference, <a href="https://www.mainstreet.org/howwecanhelp/mainstreetnow/now2019">
Main Street Now</a>, in Seattle on March 25-27, 2019. But, we could use your help! The host state is required to coordinate approximately 100 volunteers to make this conference happen. If you’re interested in helping, please see the information below:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="margin-left:.5in;text-align:center"><b><u>Volunteer for Main Street Now 2019!<o:p></o:p></u></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Volunteers who contribute <b>8 hours</b> of time receive a
<b>$160 discount</b> on registration. Your discount code will be emailed to you after you sign up for 8 hours (or, as it’s not easy to make exactly 8 from the time slots available, at least 7 hours). Please do us the great kindness of only signing up for shifts
you can commit to… we don’t have the staff capacity to deal with last-minute cancellations.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">My coworker Cathy will be helping me with volunteer coordination. You may be getting your discount code from her and she will be the point person for all volunteers when you arrive to Seattle in March.
