For people looking for a valuable way to spend their spare time, the Warren County Volunteer Fair will present a variety of opportunities. Volunteering is an avenue to enrich your own life, create a positive impact in the lives of others, and strengthen your community.

“Volunteer – it’s good for the soul,” says Fern Vazquez, Volunteer Fair participant and coordinator of Warren County’s Community Garden.

“It is more than giving of self, it is giving to our community or County. Volunteer, let your actions speak louder,” adds Walt Mabe, Warren County Board of Supervisors Shenandoah District Representative.

The fair – hosted by The Wednesday Group, C-CAP, and Samuels Public Library – will be held from 10:00 am – 1:00 pm on Saturday, May 14 at Samuels Public Library, 330 E. Criser Road, Front Royal, VA.

The purpose of the event is to connect willing volunteers to non-profit organizations in need of help. With nearly 20 organizations currently registered, civic-minded people are sure to find an opportunity that suits their skills and talents. The event is free to the nonprofit organizations and would-be volunteers.

Volunteers of all ages are encouraged to attend. Light refreshments will be furnished by The Wednesday Group.

“Bring the family and learn about many of the volunteer organizations that bring Front Royal and Warren County to life. It’s a wonderful way to get involved in your community while helping others,” exclaims Jeff Browne, member of The Wednesday Group.

Representatives of local nonprofits can register for the event by calling Samuels Public Library at 540-635-3153 or emailing Michelle Ross at mross@samuelslibrary.net.
