Volunteers, we need you.
We cannot pull of an event of this size off successfully without
EVERYONE'S help. Even if you cannot sign up for a shift, you can still
help with clean up and keeping everyone safe. Together we can create a
happy environment for everyone to feel safe and have a good time.
But, really, we need you. Here is the link to the volunteer sign up site: http://ogdenfamdamily-e111.volunteerlocal.com/volunteer/?id=10476
If you have questions about your shift please contact your team lead.
Being a volunteer is fun and a great way to meet people. Work with a
friend, spouse, love or child. We accept all volunteers regardless
of age or experience. Teens can volunteer; however, those under 12 need
to work with a parent and may only be considered a "half" volunteer.
But it is a good opportunity to teach our children how to help others
and work a large event. Teens can work all shifts except for the medical
shifts. Medical shift volunteers MUST be sober and alert, thank you.
SOMETHING NEW: Prime shifts
Filling all of our shifts, especially with uniques is hard. So this year
we are offering an incentive. Those that are able to attend an
orientation meeting and make their PRIME shift will get $20 back at the
volunteer appreciation party. Prime shifts are those during busy hours
that are hard to fill. We HAVE to have those shifts filed and we greatly
appreciate those who step up.
Orientation meeting: September 2nd, 6pm at Fort Buenaventura,
meet at the Trader Row Pavilion (this pavilion is kinda in the center of
the park just before the bridge, near parking) If you cannot make this
meeting contact your team lead.
Sweet schhhwaaag and stuff:
Volunteer t-shirts will be at the medical tent. Sizes are limited, so
come early. All volunteers who make their shift will get a FallEQ 2015
t-shirt and are invited to the volunteer appreciation party. For the
party we usually spend about $600 on BBQ and buy about 120 beers, all
ages are welcome, it is a fun time and a good chance to discuss things
that worked and things that did not work. If there are any extra
t-shirts those will be given out as well and maybe even a gift, last
year we gave out plate/cup/utensil camp sets.
Tickets: volunteering does not earn a free pass. This event costs
thousands of dollars and everyone contributes. But this year, after you
buy your ticket and work your shift(s) you'll get a reward. But don't
forget to buy your ticket and they are cheaper in advance.
Sign up! Thank you, thank you, thank you....
