Volunteers Needed for Nightmare at Beaver Lake

The Rotary Club of Sammamish is seeking volunteers for its annual fall classic - "Nightmare at Beaver Lake" - which will be held in October.

The Halloween event provides a good, old-fashioned scare but in a fun and safe way, organizers say.

The community organization needs volunteers to work as actors, makeup artists, social media specialists, set designers, security guards and web developers. The community group encourages anyone who enjoys theater, film and comedy to help out.

Organizers will provide training. Volunteer hours also can be counted for community service hours required by a school or class.

For more information, email Volunteers@NightmareAtBeaverLake.com or visit the Rotary Club's event and volunteer website.

Admission from the event helps support college scholarships for Sammamish students, families who need support during the holidays, the Sammamish Family YMCA, the Choices program at , the Chris Elliott Fund, Rotary First Harvest and projects in Uganda and Ethiopia.

A canned food drive also is held, which goes to help the Eastside Domestic Violence Program.
