Look for Red Kettles at Verizon Wireless Music Center this summer

I know, I know… it isn’t Christmas time. The sun is out, you’ve got live bands to see…

So do we! Be sure to look for The Salvation Army bellringers out at Verizon Wireless Music Center in Noblesville this summer!

Verizon is, once again, letting The Salvation Army have kettles at concerts to help raise money for, and awareness about, the much needed programs we have to offer those who are struggling.

If you’re interested in being a bellringer at an upcoming concert, all you have to do is sign up by clicking “Sign-up Online” under the “Get Involved” tab at the top of the page.

Volunteers and Employees enjoy a Race themed event!

Friday was a lovely day for a picnic – especially one with a Race theme! About 70 Salvation Army volunteers and employees attended this year’s Volunteer/Employee Appreciation Picnic at Camp Sertoma. We had amazing food (Thank you All American Picnic Company!), presented Volunteer and Employee awards, drew for Door Prizes, and played a few rounds of Bingo.

If you couldn’t make it out this year, hopefully you’ll be able to join us next year – and if you’re brand new to volunteering for The Salvation Army, this is just one of the many events you have to look forward to!

Another great day for another great event! National Salvation Week ended on a high note this year with our 2nd Annual Eat Outside the Box: A Picnic to End Homelessness.

Volunteers dished out lunch supplied by All American Picnic Company, handed out homemade desserts, bellrang, sold tickets and t-shirts, and watched the public enjoy games of cornhole, live music by Bandwagon, and, for the first time in awhile, sunshine.

Thank you to those of you who attended, and certainly to all of you who helped. We couldn’t do what we do without you.

And if you missed us this year, look for us out again next year – same place – Veteran’s Memorial Park – for the 3rd Annual Picnic…

Can’t wait that long? Mark your calendar right now to attend Apple Fest on Thursday, October 7th on Monument Circle! Bring in a Bite Back Box filled with change and we’ll even give you free apple cobbler.

Veteran’s Memorial Plaza – Friday, May 14th – 10am-2pm

Join us at Veteran’s Memorial Plaza in downtown Indy (between Meridian and Pennsylvania; North St. and Michigan St.) for a Picnic to End Homelessness!

We’ll be serving food from 10am-2pm on Friday, May 14th. For just $5, you can get a hotdog or hamburger (grilled up fresh by All American Picnic Company), choice of a side, and a drink. We’ll even have homemade desserts available too!

Come see Bandwagon performing live, a HUGE kettle bounce house, play a little cornhole, visit some booths, and enjoy the afternoon.
