Time to give a helping hand
There are plenty of last minute details that need to be organized and taken care of before Saturday's South Perry Fair and Parade can go off without a hitch.
Volunteers are needed to help pick up and transport tables and chairs on Friday at 5 p.m. Meet at the Perry Street Cafe. Chairs and tables need to go back on Sunday.
Friday morning at 10 a.m. volunteers are meeting in Grant Park to designate space for vendors and booths. And Saturday morning there are barricades to be hauled and parade participants to be lined up - if you can help, stop by the Perry Street Cafe and talk to Geoff.
As of Monday evening, 17 jewelry, arts and crafts vendors had signed up for the fair, along with 14 non-profit organizations and five political candidates.
The parade begins at 10 a.m. on Saturday and is expected to close down Perry Street, through the business district for about an hour.
