Come join us as we keep the momentum going behind the Atlanta BeltLine, one of Atlanta’s most ambitious transportation and greenspace projects! Below are upcoming volunteer opportunities at local Atlanta festivals:
Liz Coyle, Tom Gordon, and dozens of other BeltLine volunteers come out to help distribute information at local Atlanta festivals!
You can register for our volunteer management center here (those of you that have volunteered before have probably already received emails from Sharron through the system, so you can use your email and password to log in). If you have any issues, just email me and let me know and I can help you out (jenny.p@mac.com).
