Volunteers Needed For New Resource Center

Written By NatomasBuzz.com on Wednesday, September 24, 2008 | 7:41 AM

The Natomas Police & Community Resource Center is getting closer to opening in the Town Center Shopping Center (Safeway) and volunteers are now being recruited.

The City of Sacramento has committed to having folks present at various times during the week including reps from Neighborhood Services, Code Enforcement, City Council and the Police Department. All these city departments have committed to regularly scheduled times to be in the center to meet with the community.

Community volunteers are needed who will open up the shop, close the shop, hang out, organize an event, help neighbors navigate on-line resources, help file on-line police reports, tutor kids, anything you can think of...

"Do school board members want to have an office hour in the facility, do neighborhood leaders want to have a coffee hour or leadership chat, do youth sports want an hour for leadership meetings, how about firefighters, neighborhood associations, mom's groups?" asks Angelique Ashby, President of the Creekside Neighborhood Association. "Think about it and send me your ideas, your thoughts and your willingness to volunteer."

Anyone interested in volunteering to be a part of the Resource Center should contact Angelique Ashby by e-mail.
