Volunteers Needed – 2025 4th of July Extravaganza!
The CHCA 4th of July Event Chairs and some other volunteers have been planning the multitude of activities for 2025. But our activities will not happen without your volunteering to help out!
So, if you haven’t already volunteered, please volunteer now as follows for one or both of these areas:
1) Click our SignUpGenius link https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0F49A4A82FA7FACF8-57185290-colonial#/ for the midway and related activities – games (classic and new), bounce houses, slip ‘n’ slide, dunk tank, setup and cleanup
and/or
2) Email Jeff Spain jspain01@cscc.edu to volunteer for helping with the 5K Run Through the Hills (please see the separate 5K Volunteers blogpost for specific activities you can help Jeff and Courtney with).

The overall schedule for all events for the 4th of July is:
- 8:30 AM Sharp! – Start of the 46th Annual 5K “Run Through the Hills”
- 10:00 AM – Kiddie Parade – Circles Selby Park
- 10:30 AM – The midway games, bounce houses, food services and more will open for all to enjoy. Purchase your midway activities wristbands before the parade to avoid the lines!
- Around Noon to Maybe 1:00 PM – Depends on how hot it is! – End of activities – But don’t be late!
For those of you new to our neighborhood, please see the blogpost recapping the 2024 4th of July. You will see that you will be enjoying a fun, festive celebration for everyone in the neighborhood – games, food, decorations, and the great company of everyone having a fun time!
Note: Teens, and especially rising seniors – you could volunteer for more than one activity over the period of the 3rd and 4th and thus get your two events credits for the CHCA scholarship! For instance, you could volunteer for setup and/or cleanup plus one shift for the midway and/or contact Jeff Spain for volunteering for the 5K. Don’t be disappointed at the last minute that you have not met the minimum 2-events qualification for scholarship consideration during your senior year! And also, try to attend a CHCA meeting this summer before your hectic senior year schedule kicks in – the meetings are the second Tuesday of the month at 7:30 PM at the Selby shelter house, so why not attend in either July, August or September?
