The Core Lead will lead the station’s preparation as just before the event begins and assist in striking the station down when the event is ending. The Core Lead will teach the evening’s volunteers about the general operations of the station and will serve as their main point of contact in addition to the WaterFire Volunteer Department staff. The Core Lead will interact with visitors in a helpful, friendly, and engaging manner and ensure the safety and well-being of the station’s volunteers, equipment, merchandise, and cash/donations. During money collection, the Core Lead will assist staff in safely and swiftly collecting donations.
