Dress code:

Set-up and clean-up crews are casual/comfortable. Sneakers highly recommended.

Event shift is dressy (skirt or slacks for women, collar and a tie for men, jacket optional) - be sure to wear RED if you can! Flats are recommended.

Restrictions: Volunteers may not consume alcohol. Volunteers will be working during the program and not seated at a table. We will do our best to get everyone into the room for the Special Appeal portion to hear the survivor speaker. Lunch and snacks will be provided in the volunteer area.

Volunteer Hours: If anyone is participating in this event for credit hours, I am more than happy to sign your forms confirming attendance. Please either bring your sheet to be signed, or let me know if you are in need of a letter.

Volunteer Training: We will not be doing any advance training, although we will be sending out details close to the event with information on the mobile bidding system. Unless you are on the set up team or have confirmed otherwise with me, please arrive at the registration desk no later than 9:30am so that we can get you trained on your station before the start of the event.

PS - If you are interested in volunteering at our next major event, Heart Ball, on Saturday, March 25th at ARIA, we will need approximately the same help (times shifted for an evening event), so if you’re interested please let me know, and I’ll be happy to put you on my list!
