VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!

WestChase Office Park, Raleigh

The NC State Fair Parking Lot Fundraiser is one of PBNC’s largest ongoing fundraising events.  We are able to accommodate a very large number of vehicles throughout the length of the NC State Fair and expect to have more than 8,000 cars utilize our lots this year.  All funds raised go to support the mission of Prevent Blindness North Carolina – to prevent blindness, preserve and restore sight, and promote good eye health for all North Carolinians.

The 2019 North Carolina State Fair will be held Thursday, October 17 – Sunday, October 27, 2019.  The Parking Lot is located at the corner of WestChase Blvd and Blue Ridge Rd in Raleigh, a mere 2-block walk from the entrance to the state fairgrounds.  The parking lot hours will be Monday – Friday from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm, and Saturday and Sunday from 8:00 am to 9:00 pm.  Volunteers are needed to collect parking fees – just $5 per car! – and to direct traffic flow inside the lots.  Would you and your friends/co-workers be able to help us?   For more information, all Angie at 919-755-5044 ext 109

The Prevent Blindness Walk is the nation’s largest grass-roots fundraising event supporting sight loss prevention and eye health.
