Volunteers Out in Force for MLK Jr. Service Project

Hundreds of volunteers came out to help with the annual MLK Jr. Service Project this morning in Oakhurst. But there's still time to help volunteer.

The following shifts are available:

Saturday, January 15, 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Sunday, January 16, 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Monday, January 17, 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Volunteers are to meet at the Solarium at the Community Center of South Decatur in the Oakhurst neighborhood at 321 W. Hill St., Decatur, Ga., 30030 at least a half-hour before the start of your shift. 

There is a release form you will need to complete and then we will send you to your assigned home.

If you will be bringing any youth who will not be accompanied by their parent/guardian, please download the release form and print a separate form for each of the youth (everyone, adults and youth, will need a signed release form). Anyone under 18-years-old must have their parent or guardian sign a release form and bring it with them to the project. Complete a separate form for each of the youth.

Volunteers must be a minimum of 12-years-old, unless they are volunteering through a supervised organization, such as Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts. Please check first before signing up a group with participants under age 12.

All volunteers are invited to attend a celebration cookout on Monday, January 17, at 5:00 p.m. at the Solarium.
