Where should I volunteer?

Post by Totoro » Fri Aug 28, 2009 9:53 am

Because I only recently decided to attend, I didn't sign up to volunteer.

Can I find places to volunteer once I get there? I'd like to chip in, meet people, etc. I must admit I'm a little leery of physical labor in the hot midday sun, but I'll do whatever I guess. I have no skills other than a smile and collaborative spirit.

I'd love to help hand out ice -- that sounds cool!

Go to Center Camp at any time during the day and find the Volunteer signup area. They'll guide you in the right direction. Greeters is always great for a noobie and so is lamplighters. If you're willing, we'll put you to work.
Camp FuckIt + MT - 7:15 & D (maybe)

Yeah I'm working in the ice trucks from 3-6 most of the week. Personally I think it's a pretty sweet gig. I'm sure there will be some no shows on shifts so ask around at arctica in center camp.

Also Recycle Camp ALWAYS needs people to help out crushing cans and sorting and such.

Come work with the Lamplighters! Show up at 5pm any day at Lamplighter Village and sign up to help us light the city. There are different tasks that are more or less physically demanding depending on your preference.

We're having a couple of special events in the Lamplighters Lounge, too... the Sangria Soiree Monday night at 10pm and the Bloody Mary Brunch Wednesday at noon.

I'll try all three

Greeters -- makes me nervous because I know very little about BRC. But if it's the newbie thing to do, I'll do it!

Ice sales -- sounds likes a greta way to help out and cool off at the same time.

Lamplighters -- sounds hot, meditative, quasi-religious. I'm there!

Thanks you all!
