2018 EXPO Planning

Did you have a good time at last year's Outdoor Expo? Thought maybe you'd like to help with the planning? Here's your chance!

The planning committee is having monthly meetings for the 2018 Outdoor Expo on the third Wednesday of each month at 6 PM (check our calendar for updates). We're looking for folks who may want to join us. Come to some meetings, have dinner and check us out, no commitment necessary. If you’re interested email: Expochair@adk-gvc.org or call 585-224-0912 for details and directions. Please come join us!

If you are interested in volunteering the day of the Expo, we need people to help set up and tear down, greet guests, guide vendors, and assist workshop hosts.  Only a two hour commitment is required.  For further details or to sign up, please contact the Expo Volunteer Coordinator at adk.expo.volunteers@gmail.com.
