Volunteers Needed For Census Event In Rowland Heights

Volunteers are needed this Saturday, March 20 at Carolyn Rosas Park in the unincorporated community of Rowland Heights for the Rowland Heights Census Community Walk. The Community Walk is part of Los Angeles County’s effort to increase participation in the 2010 Census and achieve a complete and accurate count.

The event will begin at 9:00 a.m. with an hour-long training for the volunteers, followed by the Community Walk from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Volunteers will go out into the hard-to-count portions of Rowland Heights to make sure that residents fill out and turn in their forms. Free lunch and a t-shirt will be provided for all volunteers.

Carolyn Rosas Park is located at 18500 Farjardo Street in Rowland Heights. For more information on the event, please call (909) 594-6561.
