Volunteer Leader
We are seeking a core group of volunteers who are eager to volunteer for a full day, either Friday, Saturday or Sunday. In a two hour orientation session before the event, these volunteer leaders will be trained to be able to perform all tasks within a major functional area, e.g., evaluations collector, demonstration area, etc. During one day of the event, these volunteer leaders will then train and supervise the shift volunteers within that area. Please consider taking this opportunity to make this event even better!
