We are hosting a Summer Carnival at historic Vail Headquarters as a fundraiser for the Vail Ranch Restoration Association (the group responsible for saving this historic Temecula landmark from demolition!).
There will be games, live music, food trucks, vendors, rides and lots of fun!
We need volunteers to run simple carnival style games (such as ring toss and skeeball)
at the event.
Volunteers would take tickets from each player, explain the rules of the game and hand out prizes to winners.
At events like this in the past we have had up to 2,000 guests come throughout the duration of the event - so it will be a busy but fun night!
Event is Friday August 25th from 6 to 10pm at 32115 Temecula Parkway - snacks and bottled water will be provided for volunteers!
Please contact events@vailhq.com with any questions

Mission Statement
"Dedicated to the preservation and restoration of the Historic Vail Ranch Headquarters." VaRRA, an acronym for the Vail Ranch Restoration Association, had its beginning in the mid 1990’s when a small cadre of Temecula residents who were interested in preserving the lore and legends of Temecula learned that portions of the Vail Ranch site might be razed to make room for development. As a result of their efforts over the years Vail Ranch is now a significant California historical site. VaRRA is dedicated to the preservation of the Historic Vail Ranch Headquarters Site in an area where Temecula originally started. Today this 4 acre site holds the last remaining portion of the Butterfield Overland Stage Trail and Ft. Yuma Road. This is also the route the Mormon Battalion marched in January 1847 on their way to San Diego during the Mexican-American War in California.
Description
Like the dewy freshness of a new morning the Vail Headquarters has awakened from a sleep of fifty years. Once an important stop along the Butterfield Overland Trail and the center of the Village of Temecula, the location was forgotten when the train rumbled into the valley and commerce moved westward. Today you see new life springing back into the original four acres and the seven historic buildings that have proudly stood the test of time.
It took a group of people who were passionate about saving vestiges of the past as a community heritage site and the expertise of a visionary firm that has turned back time to make the updated Vail Headquarters into a place to eat, drink, browse and to meet up with friends.
Vail HQ is a place that brings the community together, introduces visitors to our local heritage, and welcomes everybody to enjoy the best of today’s Temecula.
