This year's bazaar promises to be the most exciting yet, with many vendors bringing new merchandise as well as many of your favorites items.

Our annual bazaars are the largest source of revenue for the YOSC Welfare Budget. These funds are distributed to the Yokota community through donations to many worthwhile causes such as our schools, library, clubs & organizations, family & youth programs and Air Force-wide programs. As a result of past bazaars, over $100,000 has been raised for the Yokota community at large.

You can help make this year's bazaar a success by donating your time. Volunteers are needed to:

* Assist vendors

Set-up assistance is needed for Friday, October 10th; vendor assistance and cashiers are needed for both morning and afternoon shifts on Saturday and Sunday, October 11th and 12th; Additionally, clean up volunteers are needed for early Sunday evening.

Volunteering has Perks!
