Tis’ the Season to Join Us

As we prepare for the 25th anniversary of our beloved holiday fundraiser for literacy, Journey to the North Pole™, we are reminded of how amazing our local communities are with helping us make this event so magical! We have volunteers from all walks of life that assist us before and during the fundraiser! If you are interested in volunteering, we have multiple opportunities for you to choose from! Volunteers who are available are welcome to join us at the Theater in the Wood for our Volunteering Tuesdays!  During Volunteering Tuesdays, we will be tying bells, assembling Santa’s Gift Sets, and counting candy all in preparation for the major fundraiser.  Volunteering Tuesdays begin at 9:00 am and end around 12:00 pm, coffee and breakfast snacks will be provided. Volunteer sign-ups for the event itself are open for both the North Conway and Lincoln, NH locations!  Volunteers can be greeters at the train stations, magical chefs aboard the train, or even elves at the North Pole!  Dinner is provided for all volunteers and spots are filling up quickly so please make sure you sign up for the dates that work best for your schedule. Make magic this holiday season with Believe in Books Literacy Foundation!  All net proceeds from Journey to the North Pole™ go directly to our literacy programs!

Tis’ the Season for Volunteering!

Even though it is only October, the Believe in Books Literacy Foundation’s focus is on the upcoming holiday season and our famous fundraiser!  Journey to the North Pole™ event dates open to the general public tomorrow!  After successful advanced ticket sales for our dedicated volunteers, supporting members, and the preferred pre-sale, we look to start prepping for this enchanting experience. As dates are starting to sell out, we look to start recruiting volunteers to help prepare for this magical event.  We are beginning our “Volunteering Tuesdays” this coming Tuesday, October 16th at 9:30 am in the lobby of the Theater in the Wood. Volunteers will help fold scarves, tie bells, and assist with assembling our Santa Gift Sets. All volunteers are welcomed with coffee and snacks during their visit. We are so grateful for our dedicated volunteers!   Now you sign up now for our “Volunteering Tuesdays,” and you can also sign up to help with the actual event, Journey to the North Pole™ in both North Conway and Lincoln.  We are looking for volunteers every night we have a show to either be a greeter at the train station, a chef on the train, or an elf at the North Pole! We ask that volunteers stay for both performances per night and will be provided with dinner and snacks! If you are free on Tuesdays or want to help out during the actual shows, sign ups are available at www.believeinbooks.org and www.journeytothenorthpole.org.  If you have any questions about any of our volunteering opportunities, please feel free to contact our office at 603-356-9980. THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS!

Volunteers are welcome on Tuesday mornings to join BIBLF staff at the Theater in the Wood to prep for the big event!  We will be tying bells and assembling gifts sets.  There will be coffee and breakfast snacks for all volunteers that join us.  Volunteering Tuesdays will take place each week through November 19th with the possibility of additional Tuesdays in December depending on our progress!  We hope you can make it to one or more of our Volunteering Tuesdays but if not, there are plenty of other volunteering opportunities throughout our busy holiday season! Volunteer Sign-ups are open and available for the event itself online.  We’ll be looking for greeters at the train stations, chefs on the train, and elves at the North Pole!  If you are interested in helping out either before the event or during, please visit  www.journeytothenorthpole.org/volunteering---employment.html.
