YEA! Presents Extreme Trailer Makeover!
After a successful summer season on the road, the YEA!/Cadets Merchandise Trailer made it’s way home to Allentown, PA after a long Summer Drum Corps Tour. Once it arrived and the doors were opened staff members were disappointed to see a little more than the average wear and tear that usually follows the summer tour. Shelving units and retaining walls had come apart inside. This created a little more damage than what was normally expected to the inside of the trailer and now with the Cadets Fall Recruitment and Marching Band season approaching, the organization is looking for a few “handy” volunteers to help with the “Extreme Trailer Makeover”. As we recruit into the fall, we really would like the trailer to be of “Cadet Quality” as thousands of potential members will see this vehicle during the fall Marching Band season.
Scheduled for Saturday, September 13, 2008, the organization is looking for a handful of volunteers (up to 6) to help rebuild the inside of the trailer. Carpentry, Electrical, Painting and Flooring help are really needed as we will be totally gutting out the inside of the trailer and then giving it an “Extreme Makeover” inside. New flooring, merchandise shelves, minor electrical work and a little touch up painting will all be on the agenda for this date. We are also looking for someone that maybe able to assist in the design layout of the inside of the trailer too.
It’s a BYOT (Bring Your Own Tools) event! All building supplies will be onsite, along with food and beverages too.
If you would like to donate your time, building supplies or any other suggestions, please contact the Merchandise Department at 610-821-0345 x22 or email matt@yea.org <mailto:matt@yea.org
