Volunteers Needed for Local Dinner
We anticipate more than 200 people at this event and we need volunteers to help with:
Set-up/clean-up—including table placement and setting, light food prep, etc.
Parking
Staffing Welcome table—name tags, tickets
Food service—especially suited to anyone that has done waiter or waitressing and is experienced in customer service and food presentation.
Technology—we’ll have two live performances, multiple speakers, and will want to project a couple of short videos with sound. Someone gifted in coordinating all the technology for that would be a huge help!
Staffing the Co-op information table
Don’t assume someone else is going to do it, we need you!! The $100 dinner fee will be waived for all volunteers donating 3 or more hours of their time! Please contact Melissa Frey at 336-314-1972 or melissa@companyshopsmarket.coop.
For the Co-op,
Melissa.
