Seeking Volunteer to Help Deliver BluesNotes
Due to the departure of long-time volunteers and several venues that have opened in the recent past, the CBA is seeking somebody who may be able to help deliver BluesNotes in the SE Portland area. The route would include venues Queen of Hearts, Knuckleheads, Mama Maria’s, Gators and Vino Vixens, plus any other spot you may want to approach about displaying the paper. Preferably we would like to have the papers delivered before the first of each month and that would mean picking up the papers from our cabinets located at our office in Tigard (we can give directions and the papers are available 24 hours a day). Or they can be brought to the CBA monthly meeting and picked up from there, though sometimes the meetings occur a week into the month, which means word of several shows may be missed. If you’re interested in helping, please send an e-mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . It doesn’t stop there; we can always use other volunteers for various needs. Thank you.BluesNotes
