If you are a business looking to advertise while simultaneously supporting the theatre scene in Provo, this would be a great opportunity. If you have some extra time that day, they could probably also use volunteers. And finally, if you are around the Freedom Festival festivities that day, stop by the Provo Theatre and support them!

2) Last Saturday I participated in a 5k benefiting the Central Utah Center for Independent Living (CUCIL). There was such a good vibe at the event. If you're around next year, I highly recommend that you look into running in the event. But until then, CUCIL needs a bit of help. From the website: "As you might know already, we have been struggling for funding and would like to ask for your support. If you or someone you know has any Assistive Technology Equipment such as: an electric wheelchair, manual wheelchair, walker or any other assistive device that does not need repairs, please contact: Rafael Aguirre at (801) 373-5044".
And there you have it! Two relatively simple ways to support the Provo community. Spread the word!
P.S. This week is also the Freedom Festival. There are events all week long. See the schedule here. I went to the Balloon Festival two mornings last year, and it was magical! It is worth getting up that early to go. I wish so much that I could be in town for it this year, but alas, I have left to go home to California for the summer. Be sure to take pictures of the balloon launch and email them to me! (Extra points if you write a sign that says "HI ALLISON" and hold it in front of balloonnssss!)
