There are a variety of physical requirements needed during this time, so please be sure you click on the best activity for you.

Roles/skills needed:

Very Skilled Volunteer:  

We need individuals who are capable of heavy lifting, moving, construction and building using a skill or miter saw.  Heavy lifting and moving ability is needed Monday and Tuesday to help with loading in props from our storage area.  Construction and building skill is needed Wednesday, Thursday & Friday (November 15, 16 & 17).  We also need at least two people who are strong and can climb to the top of the tree to help with stringing its lights.  If you are able to do this task, please put in the comments section.

Medium Skilled Volunteer:

We need individuals who know what to do with a screwdriver and a hammer, but not yet ready for a skill saw.  We are looking for good utility players who can do some lifting to help us with sign placements and other display builds. 

General Volunteer: 

We need many volunteers each day to help with light work and general chair support.  This includes stringing miles of lights, helping sponsors decorate/build their chairs, running electrical cords, light lifting, etc.  General volunteers can be any adult, high school student and even middle school students!
