OAKS & DERBY DAY PARKING & SHUTTLE

 

Parking is $5 on these days as long as you are there before 8am (which everyone will be). 

There will be a shuttle running from the parking lot to Churchill Downs but it does cost $10 each way.  In years past typically everyone walks to the track.  Please note that it is about a 10-15 minute walk so please allow extra time to get to your sales location.

It is time again for G.O. Ministries' single largest fundraising event of the year.  Last year with your help we were able to raise a record amount of  $55,000!  Please help us make a difference all over the world by giving of your time and talent.  It is amazing how much of an impact you can have by just volunteering for 2 1/2 days!

  Register by clicking on the box below!

Here are the details: The Game is the company that produces most of the NCAA sports fan gear, hats, outwear, etc.  They have been the official merchandise provider for The Kentucky Derby & Oaks for the last 8 years.  The Game has been partnering with G.O. Ministries by offering us money if we can set up & staff their souvenir booths.  We need sales people for the week prior to Derby, but the real big days are Thursday, May 2nd, Friday, May 3rd & Saturday, May 4th.

We are up to the challenge again this year and would like you to help us by volunteering and getting the word out!  Please consider helping us out.

We need 60 people that can work all three "BIG" days: May 2nd, May 3rd, and May 4th.  We need people that can work both days.  We will not be able to split a day shift.  At the very least we need a 12 hour commitment. With all of our volunteers The Game has requested that you be at least 16 years of age.

If you know someone who wants to help out but can only commit to one day we can CERTAINLY use them but we really NEED people who can do both if possible.  Help us earn over $50,000 for the ministry again this year!

Here are the hours:

Thursday, May 2nd   

Friday, May 3rd    

Saturday, May 4th    

 

Please consider sharing this information with your friends, small groups, etc.  It will be a great opportunity to hang out while helping us make a difference.

If you would like to recruit a team from your church, school, Bible study, etc. to go with you let me know and we will be help answer any questions you may have.
