Volunteers needed: Community Outreach Tent to promote Good Oral Health to the public. 

The Detroit District Dental Society has added new this year a community outreach tent that will be engaging the public in learning more about "Good Oral Health".  This was made possible with the PR Grant from the Michigan Dental Association (MDA).  The tent will be at the Zoo entrance and participants will interact with the public in promoting oral health at various stations.  We need volunteers from 8:30am to 12noon.  We are running two-hour shifts.  Volunteer in the morning and enjoy the Detroit Dental Society Picnic and the zoo in the afternoon.

Volunteers will sign up for their volunteer time slot below. 

Pricing for volunteers. MDA Members $25.00 and Dental Students FREE REGISTRATION FOR VOLUNTEERING
Pricing includes admission to the zoo, Detroit Dental Society Picnic, and super appreciation of all the good work for promoting good oral health to the public.
