Sarurday, October 10, 2021 - Trunk or Treat Evet

Similar in format to the May festival but with some new features:

• We will have tables set up in the grassy areas; some will be under small tents, and some out in the open for people to eat on-site.
• We will have a Beer Garden serving varieties of draft beer and appetizers.
• We will be serving packaged entrees at the restaurant as we did in May, adding lamb shank and Grecian lemon chicken platters. In addition, the restaurant entrees and pastries will be available to order online and on-site.
• We will have the Gyro / Souvlaki tent as well, with some new offerings!

Here is how you can help us make this scaled-down version of OPA a success:

1. Share our event with your social media friends and family.
2. Gather your family and friends and commit to volunteer together for a few shifts.
3. Please make a ‘festival donation’ here to help us with the cost of the event.
4. Preorder your food here for pick up.

Why be a Volunteer?

It’s not for money, it’s not for fame.
It’s not for any personal gain.
It’s just for love of fellowman.
It’s just to send a helping hand.
It’s just to give a tithe of self.
That’s something you can’t buy with wealth.
It’s not medals won with pride.
It’s for that feeling deep inside.
It’s that reward down in your heart.
It’s that feeling that you’ve been a part.
Of helping others far and near,
that makes you be a Volunteer!
