Site Set Up volunteers work as a team to create a safe and inspiring course room for the 3-day retreat kick-off ti the Y-NOW Program. This requires volunteers to perform a variety of tasks including: packing and unloading supplies from Safe Place Services' vans, setting up sound system, hanging posters, setting up logistics rooms, moving items in and out of the course room as necessary, etc.
Volunteers meet at Safe Place Services (2400 Crittenden Dr) then drive themselves or carpool to the retreat site: Country Lake Christian Retreat Center in Underwood, IN (which is about 20 minutes north of Louisville).
