- give you your official volunteer t-shirt to wear at the event
- tell you where to park and find help
- go over safety rules
- answer any remaining questions you may have
Please let us know ASAP if you can’t make the Volunteer Orientation by contacting us.

Layers! Please check the weather, but prepare for temperatures as low as the 40’s in the morning and as high as the 80’s in the afternoon. Also bring a rain jacket and a hat.
