Volunteering at Thomas the Train - Need Help
SAVE THE DATES FOR  VOLUNTEERING  A “Day out with Thomas” at the Colorado Railroad Museum.
 
The Railroad Museum is hosting the “Thomas the Tank Engine” for the 17th consecutive year and the Denver Lions have an opportunity to be Thomas Volunteers and help with this year’s program.  Last year Denver Lions volunteered 32 shifts and they all said they had a blast.  With the number of volunteers, the Museum did not charge us for the use of the pavilion.  We again need volunteers this year.
 
Thomas will be running for three weekends.  September 7/8, 14/15, 21/22
 
If you are able to volunteer for A Day Out With Thomas at the Colorado Railroad Museum, simply click this link to fill out the form https://coloradorailroadmuseum.org/volunteers/
 
OR
 
If you would like to volunteer, just send an email to the Event and Volunteer Director  danielle@crrm.org.
It is a good idea to tell her what day or days you can help. If you have not volunteered for this either of the last two years,
 Try it, you will have a lot of fun.
 
It is a fun time and you will be a part of making a lot of little kids very happy.  Thomas the Train is a big deal for the little kids.
 
THIS IS IMPORTANT:  IF WE GET ENOUGH VOLUNTEERS THEY WILL ALSO TRADE OFF THE USUAL CHARGE FOR THE USE OF THE PAVILION FOR THE VOLUNTEER HOURS.
Lions Eye Bank Photo Project August 24
Come have a fun evening and support the Rocky Mountain Lions Eye Bank   
 
The Circle of Light Photo Project is a collection of images photographed by people whose blindness was cured through a cornea or sclera transplant. It aims to show the impact eye, organ and tissue donation has on our communities and hopes to inspire others to leave the legacy of sight and life by becoming eye, organ and tissue donors.
 
Each of the photos on this website was taken by transplant recipients who benefited from eye donors in Colorado and Wyoming. Some of the photographers had their sight back for only a few months while others had their sight restored a few years ago. In each case, the images in the collection were only possible because of the generosity of an eye donor.
 
Event:  Circle of Light Photo Project - Lions Eye Bank
Date:  August 24, 2019
Time: 5:30 to 10:00 PM – drop-in or tickets can be bought in advance
Location:  RedLine Contemporary Art Center, 2350 Arapahoe St, Denver, CO 80205
