Call for Volunteers
The Town of Carefree is instituting an Ambassador Program and we need your help.
This program is designed to get residents involved in our community to help in promoting our businesses, areas of interest and generating excitement in our Town.
Our Ambassadors will act like docents walking around town and interfacing with visitors and residents alike. They will be knowledgeable about our stores, restaurants and galleries. They will also have a deep knowledge of our history and key points of interest: the desert gardens, North America’s tallest sundial, the splash pad and more.
Our Ambassadors will be empowered to answer questions about our community and county with pride and to point out all the treasures that we have right here in our own backyard.
Volunteers will be given a comprehensive visitor ‘survival guide’; a reference folder filled with maps, various attractions, marketing materials and a quick reference guide of customer service tips, Carefree trivia, history and more.
We will be stationed in the Town’s new visitor center, adjacent to the Pavilion stage, and will be easily identified by our Ambassador shirts and hats. This will not only be fun but it will help our Town and its businesses.
We only have room for 10 volunteers to start out so, you are interested please contact: cherylkroyer@carefree.org to reserve your place.
Hi Lyn! You have donated the PEARLS two years in a row, and they have been well received...
Can we get some "PR" in the TRUTH too...?
You know; In my "spare-time" I volunteer for the MARINE CORPS LAW ENFORCEENT FOUNDATION: MCLEF.
Since 1995 we have raised over $75 Million for children and families of Fallen Marines and Federal Law Enforcement Officers who have died in the LINE-OF-DUTY serving US... We set aside $35,000 for each child in an "escrow-type" account and when the child reaches the age of 18 the money is theirs for school/education etc.... We are a National 401-c non-profit. Our Board of Directors "BOD" reads like the WHO'S-WHO of the Marine Corps and FBI...
We raise money here in AZ with an annual golf tournament. This will be out 16th. See attached...
We have had in the past several (avg 4-7) MEDAL OF HONOR recipients join us. We have a "GATHERING OF HERO'S" meet & greet at the American Legion the evening prior to the Tournament. Chaplin says a prayer, Taps is played as we lower the Flag, and we proceed to mingle w friends... The next morning is TEE-OFF... cocktails at the clubhouse and an awards luncheon and auction.
Here's a quick video of a Marine's wife that received our help 2-3 years ago. Very powerful.... YouTube:

We've done well in years past, but Phoenix is the 5th largest city in the US and known for its golf and veteran community... I personally want to take MCLEF to a higher level and get several great corporate sponsors involved and have 140+ golfers attend...
BTW... We are a 100% volunteer (OK, we have 1 P/T bookkeeper in Tuckahoe NY) and the majority (Kirk hates it when I say this...) 85% of the money we raise goes to the children and families!
This year: SEPT 24 & 25, see attached...
Let me know if you need anything more from me and I'll get it!

All, the attached letter was sent out to our board and membership (in our monthly newsletter) this past week recapping 2020, as well as announcing my resignation as president of the Cave Creek Museum, effective June 1st. It has been a year that I will always cherish, but onto new and existing projects that require more attention that will benefit all of our community.
If you have not visited the Cave Creek Museum, please drop by and see all of the fine work that our curator Liz Kapp and Museum Program Coordinator Remi Pettus are doing. The museum is in great hands, and I look forward to the next generation of leadership developing from within its walls. www.cavecreekmuseum.org
I'm grateful to my friend, Interim Executive Director Suzanne Johnson, for bringing mentorship and outreach back to the museum, and being that friend, forcing us to laugh whenever we needed. Suzanne-- "On to #2!" :)
Your friend,
Vince D'Aliesio
