It’s time for the Polar Express to make its annual appearance at the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad. Volunteer elves are needed for this enchanted holiday ride. As elves, volunteers make the hot chocolate, deliver cocoa and cookies aboard the train and help Santa to give out the first gift of the season. We are looking for people to help make magic aboard this special train.
This is a great way to give back to the community, have a fun time with friends and experience the magic of the season! Join the fun and make kids of all ages smile and Believe this holiday season.
This family friendly event runs the day after Thanksgiving, Nov. 28 through Dec. 23. The train runs Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and Monday, December 22 and Tuesday December 23. We ask that people volunteer for three (3) nights out of our 14 day event, about 6 hours each night, but we are happy to have volunteers for as many nights as they can give.
This is the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad’s biggest annual fundraiser - Thank you for your support!
For more information and to volunteer contact Jennifer Halm-Perazone, Volunteer Coordinator at; 207-828-0814, MNGRR 58 Fore St., #6, Portland ME 04101 or polarexpress@mainenarrowgauge.org
