The Clothesline Project is a powerful witness of the violence many live with, and it provides a healing outlet for those who were forcibly silenced. Its goal is to raise awareness and stir the viewers to action in an effort to end the epidemic of violence. The Clothesline Project is free and open to the public; additionally, blank t-shirts will be available, free of charge, for anyone wanting to share their story.<br /><br />We are in great need of volunteers on the days of the Clothesline Project to assist with set up (starting at 6:00 a.m. on Thursday, October 1st in the Grande Ballroom), to explain what the Clothesline Project is to those who view it, hang new t-shirts (if needed), take pictures of new shirts and type the words for our online Clothesline Project, and assist with take-down starting at 8:00 p.m. on Friday, October 2nd.<br />For additional information and/or to volunteer, please contact Jennie Briggs at (801) 863-8498.<br /><br />Event runs October 1st and 2nd<br />UVU Grande Ballroom<br />8:00 AM - 8:00 PM<br /><p>Visit <a href="http://www.uvu.edu/equitycenter/clothesline/">http://www.uvu.edu/equitycenter/clothesline/</a> for more information.</p>Volunteer Staffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15459221458147599041noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157111071693680491.post-11951915281239794542009-09-15T09:19:00.003-06:002009-09-15T09:39:29.395-06:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNo2Q-g_t1NC5AaApJG-uBcplcQfp6Zj-yGEqv7TDP5t4scoTGe0HaS4sDzjuyj3qF_9-nUDd0m-PEikGe9zc_NfWqbAiAc21diKRl07qNXwfsyBaDUUYsBWVpM1gM-IIzq9Fo7TDwT4JV/s1600-h/CA-5K-final-logo.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 100px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNo2Q-g_t1NC5AaApJG-uBcplcQfp6Zj-yGEqv7TDP5t4scoTGe0HaS4sDzjuyj3qF_9-nUDd0m-PEikGe9zc_NfWqbAiAc21diKRl07qNXwfsyBaDUUYsBWVpM1gM-IIzq9Fo7TDwT4JV/s200/CA-5K-final-logo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381714364036183842" border="0" /></a><br />Come run or walk to serve people in your community!!!

Looks like we have an opportunity for service at Capitol Reef. If anyone is interested, see the contact number below!<br />Renee<br /><br /><br />Renee Van Buren, Professor<br />Department of Biology<br />Director, Capitol Reef Field Station<br />Utah Valley University<br />800 West University Parkway<br />Orem, Utah 84058-5999<br />801-863-8479<br />renee.vanburen@uvu.edu </span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"><br />National Parks Conservation Association<br />Volunteer Service in Capitol Reef National Park</span><br /><br />September 26, 2009 (National Public Lands Day)<br /><br />The NPCA is seeking up to 20 volunteers to help with Russian olive and tamarisk removal along the Fremont River corridor on September 26, 2009, National Public Lands Day, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Capitol Reef National Park has been working for several years to control the exotic invasive species of Russian olive and tamarisk along the Fremont River and Highway 24 corridor within the park.<br /><br />The project entails cutting Russian olive and tamarisk down to 6” – 12” high stumps. The stumps are then treated with herbicide. Large trees, and clumps of larger stems, will be cut by Park personnel using chainsaws. Smaller stems will be cut by the volunteers using hand tools (loppers and hand saws).<br /><br />Branches and stems will be dragged short distances for either piling or chipping.<br />Volunteers will not have to apply herbicides; however, all volunteers will be working near where herbicide is being applied and will be able to smell the citrus-based oil with which the herbicide is mixed.<br /><br />Some or all of the cut stems may be chipped. If that is the case, the Park will provide a chipper operator who will supervise any volunteers working around the chipper.<br /><br />A safety overview and discussion will be conducted by Park personnel prior to commencing work. During the project all volunteers and Park staff are expected to maintain a high level of safety awareness for themselves and everyone working around them. Park staff will have first aid kits on-site, and will have radio communication with central dispatch.<br />The Park will provide all tools and equipment needed to perform the control work, including loppers, hand saws, and spray bottles.<br /><br />If some of the volunteers are willing to assist with the herbicide application, rubber gloves will be provided for that task. Orange safety vests will be provided for work along roadsides. Hardhats and ear protection will be provided for any volunteers who assist the chainsaw or chipper operators.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">Each volunteer is required to provide the following: </span><br />Sturdy work boots<br />Long work pants<br />Long-sleeve work shirt (recommended)<br />Leather work gloves<br />Eye protection (glasses, sunglasses, or safety goggles/glasses)<br />Sunscreen<br />Drinking water (minimum of 3 quarts)<br />Lunch/snacks<br /><br />For questions or to sign up for this project, please contact Aitana de la Jara at Capitol Reef National Park.

The information is crucial to Academic Scheduling's ability to effectively schedule course sections each semester.<br /><br />As each partner in this project has very limited resources, we are requesting volunteers to assist. We would like to complete the project by May 29, but are flexible into June. Our estimate is 50 man hours.<br /><br />For more information contact:<br />Lisa at<br />Academic Scheduling<br /></span><span style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; color: rgb(102, 102, 0); text-decoration: underline;font-family:Tahoma;font-size:100%;" ><a href="http://www.uvu.edu/acadsched/" target="_blank">http://www.uvu.edu/acadsched/</a></span><span style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Tahoma;font-size:100%;" ><br />801-863-8770<br /></span>Volunteer Staffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15459221458147599041noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157111071693680491.post-13728483961530094902009-04-27T15:13:00.007-06:002009-04-27T15:25:37.191-06:00Free Kidney Screening<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://image.volunteersolutions.org/images/cache/000/000/002/649/2649383.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 221px; height: 98px;" src="http://image.volunteersolutions.org/images/cache/000/000/002/649/2649383.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>Do you, your parents or siblings have diabetes or high blood pressure?<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Or<br />Does anyone in your family have kidney disease?<br /></div><br />If you answered YES to either question, you may be at risk for kidney disease and should attend the FREE Kidney Screening<br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Sponsored by the National Kidney Foundation of Utah & Idaho</span><br /><br />Thursday, <span style="font-weight: bold;">May 28</span>, 2009<br />10:00 am - 2:00 pm<br /><br />SC-206<br /><br />(parking is free in the lot north of the Student Center)<br /><br />Call 801-226-5111 for an appointment.Volunteer Staffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15459221458147599041noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157111071693680491.post-4554259836581988842009-04-10T16:38:00.001-06:002009-04-10T16:50:01.092-06:00Looking for a fun way to volunteer?
