VolunteeringVolunteers are a critical part of the Flotilla. To operate a smooth, safe and successful event, we will need volunteers to perform a wide variety of tasks before, during and after the event. We couldn’t run this event without the help of dedicated volunteers!
If you’d like to help out, view the descriptions of each position below and then select the role(s) you would like to be considered for.
Volunteer roles differ in time. Please make sure you can stay for the entire time for the role you choose. You may also sign up for multiple roles if the times do not overlap. And we love volunteers who are available “Wherever I’m needed.”
Please note that we will try to place everyone in his/her desired volunteer position(s), but cannot guarantee placement. For most positions, final assignments will be made one week prior to the event.
If you would like to volunteer or have questions about volunteering, contact us at
volunteer@soundwaters.org.
