ACCF SURVEY: We have put up a survey to collect responses from Amador residents about personal enrichment classes they might be interested in taking.  It is brief and easy to do. Please go to this link and begin.  It will only take a few moments.  http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/HLGDQRX . The information you submit is anonymous.  Thanks for taking the time to help us.

REQUEST FOR VOLUNTEERS: Jazzin' It Up in Jackson is just around the corner and we are looking for volunteers to help us make this the best Jazzin' yet! This year we will be closing down Main Street Jackson to make more room to enjoy the music and wine tasting. The event is Saturday June 22nd, from 6-9pm. It is a free event, featuring three bands, street performers and wine tasting in 23 Jackson shops.

    We need quite a few volunteers to help us watch the street barricades to ensure this is a safe event for everyone. Hour and a half to two hour shifts are available from 4pm to 930pm. There will be chairs and water available to you.  There are still a few shifts open for help at entry stations and selling waters as well.

    Please let us know if you are available to help by replying to this email or calling 267 9038.

Thank you,
