Docents, donors sought at Hakone
The Hakone Foundation is looking for a few good men and women to serve as volunteer docents at Hakone Gardens' Cultural Exchange Center, which is open on weekends when the center is not in use by organized groups or classes.
The center's exhibitions change every few months, so donations or loans of private Asian art or craft collections are always welcome. Racks for the center's kimono collection are also needed.
Hakone Gardens is at 21000 Big Basin Way in Saratoga. Call Helen Metcalf at 408.867.9349 or Lillian Morgan at 408.867.2661 for additional information.

The event includes authentic Mexican cooking, French crêpes, Native American arts and crafts demonstrations, a display of wares from Third World countries and cultural and historical tales spun by storytellers. Those attending are welcome to dress in international attire. For more information, call 408.370.1877.
Special Olympics seeks volunteers
