Saturday, June 23 and Sunday, June 24
Shifts: 10am - 1pm and 1-4pm

Volunteer alongside Bridging The Gap staff to help make the Unitarian Universalist Convention a Green Event! Special events, like concerts and conventions, generate on average 1 pound of waste per person per event day! Integrating Green Event processes allows virtually all of the waste to be reused, recycled or composted!

This is a terrific opportunity for anyone interested in learning more about what happens behind-the-scenes to effectively manage a Green Event! (This is not a front-of-house public interfacing role). Working on the back dock, we will ensure the recycling, composting and trash are properly sorted, weigh all materials, record the data and then place all recyclables into their proper dumpster for removal.
Wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty.

Bonus: All volunteers will receive a reusable branded "Bridging The Gap" shopping bag and a KIND granola bar, courtesy of Cargill Cares!

The convention takes place Wednesday, June 20 through Sunday, June 24; choose a date that works for you (you do not need to volunteer all five days).

Shifts: 10am - 1pm or 1-4 pm

Min age: 18.

Contact: John Fish, john.fish@bridgingthegap.org and let him know your which date you prefer to volunteer.

Choose from:

Sat June 23

Sun June 24

John will send you more information including the required waiver, where to park, where to meet, what to wear, and what to bring.

We apologize that we are not able to offer or sign off on court-mandated community service or disciplinary service.
