The Cedar-Riverside Community Health Fair is this Friday, August 11th from 11:30am to 4:00pm. There are two shifts, the first from about 9:30am to 1:00pm and the second from 12:30 to 5:00pm. We can be flexible with timing AND there will be PIZZA! Tasks will involve setting up tables and chairs in the morning and breaking them down at the close of the event. You might also help direct vendors and community participants to parking, distribute backpacks to guests, and other tasks as needed. Pillsbury United Communities is the parent organization for the Brian Coyle Community Center located at 420 15th Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN 55454, there are both Blue and Green Line train stops in the neighborhood, and multiple buses that run on Cedar and Riverside Avenues. Parking should be easy to find in the morning and a little more challenging in the afternoon. If you’re concerned about transportation we can help!
This is a great way to spend some time with the awesome communities in Cedar-Riverside–and to use your community service hours! If you have any questions or concerns please email Jenean Gilmer at gilmerje@gmail.com. Thanks big time, this is sure to be a fun event!

The Norwegian Lutheran Memorial Church, “Mindekirken”, at 924 E. 21st Street, Minneapolis, is looking for Building Attendants to work weekday evenings and Saturday mornings for our language classes, as well as on Sunday mornings during worship services.
• The work hours for classes are 5:30p-8:30p Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, and 9:30a-12:30p on Saturdays. These shifts can be covered by one or more Building Attendants. There is a class break for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
• The work hours for Sundays are 8:30a-2:00p and can be a split shift between two Building Attendants.
The Building Attendant job’s primary function is to provide security and hospitality, which includes monitoring the entrances, greeting attendees, brewing coffee and maintaining the coffee break area, and opening and closing the facility. Additional tasks may include operating sound systems and assisting with connections to projectors and TV monitors.
The Building Attendant works with limited on-site supervision (once trained); is punctual and reliable. Ideal candidates have excellent communication and social skills, accurately follow instructions, and have strong problem-solving ability. The wage is $18/hour.
Mindekirken is a rather busy ELCA church with Norwegian cultural outreach. We share a city block with Norway House, not far from Augsburg University. You need not be Norwegian or Lutheran to apply. You are welcome.
