[Highland Park] Fw: Anyone looking to raise money for their group?
by Bob Staresinic 04 Aug '06

04 Aug '06

Hello All I received a call from CitiParks in reference to a swim meet at the HP pool tomorrow (Saturday). This is a competition with kids from all over the City, and they have a need for a vendor to sell food and drinks. The vendor they had just cancelled. The event goes on from morning until mid-afternoon. I dont have a lot of details about it. If you have a group that is looking to make some money, and can get it together by tomorrow, let me know. I will pass you on to CitiParks. I would need to know in the next few hours, as they are actively searching for someone to do this at the last minute. I dont think there is a vendor fee, so any money made is money kept. Thanks Bob
