Letter to the editor: Pierce House gala needs your help

December 19, 2017

letter

Dear Lincolnites,

We heard you—and we want to thank you for all your offers of help. The Lincoln New Year’s Day Open House at Pierce House is back on! With the generous support from the Celebrations Committee, the Rural Land Foundation, the Police & Fire Association, the Lincoln Family Association, private residents and town officials, we are able to support a scaled-back version of the event on January 1, 2018 from 1–5 p.m.

But we do need your help! In order to make this a wonderful event for all, volunteer staffing is needed for setup, serving, and cleanup. We can’t do it without you! If you could donate an hour or two of your time, we would greatly appreciate it. While food will be covered, we need volunteers:

  • 10 a.m.–1 p.m.:  Set up tables, chairs, tablecloths, food, etc.
  • 1–5 p.m.:  Prep food to go out from the kitchen, refill trays, empty trash, watch over children’s area
  • 5–6 p.m.:  Clean up after the event.

If you’re willing to volunteer an hour or two of your time, please fill out this short online form by Friday, Dec. 23. We will reach out individually to those who have volunteered by December 27 to confirm volunteers.

Thank you again for such a strong show of community support—this could not happen without all of you!

Sincerely,

The Pierce House Committee (Terry Green, chair)
