Make a Blanket Day Event-February 20,2015

It is time for another Make A Blanket Day Workshop! Please join us on February 20th from 10am-9pm at the Westfield Valencia Town Center. Thank you for participating in our past events. We appreciate you dedicating your time to help this wonderful cause.

Also, this year we decided to do another fundraiser with Panda Express! Make sure to drop by and support Project Linus.

To Participate in the event: Please read all directions and use the link at the end to sign up for the event so that we can prepare for the most comfortable experience for everyone.

  1. Children and Adults are all welcome.  Children under the age of 10 may struggle to participate
  2. Children under the age of 14 MUST be accompanied by an adult and must sign this insurance waiver in order to participate.  Please bring signed waiver with you.
  3. We ask that all participants sign this photo release form and bring it with them so we can share the success of our event.
  4. If you crochet or sew, you must bring your own supplies and machines.  If you want to make no-sew fleece, please bring a 54″ x 45″ of fleece (a yard and a half cut off of a bolt) with you.  DO NOT CUT THE FLEECE INTO SMALLER PIECES!  You need one piece for each shift you plan to serve.
  5. You may sign up for as many shifts as you feel you can work.  If you need service hours, please bring your service hour form with you.  We cannot go back and sign service hour logs after the event has closed.
  6. Please check in at the table in front of Sears lower level next to Red Robin.  We will then help you find space to work.
  7. We will be doing a fundraiser with Panda Express(food court) on that day.  So make sure to go and support Project Linus.
  8. Please bring fleece and we will supply you with everything else!

If you are unable to participate in this year’s event directly, but you are interested in helping, the following will directly benefit our organization:
