Volunteers will Chalk out the booth spaces the night before the fair. They will also set up cones and the city garbage and recycle cans. Sometimes it's hot so wear a hat and/or sunscreen. We will be walking the fair route wear comfortable clothes. Spaces are measured and numbers are written in each space.

We need happy friendly people who will represent the GACC. Volunteers will sell GACC merchandise, provide information (this is the information booth for the street fair.) You will maintain the Lost and Found items for later retrieval and be prepared to offer assistance. There will be a leader at the booth at all times to help you in the process.

We need Volunteers who can lift, carry, run and help set up tents, tables, and chairs for booth venders who have rented them from us. You will need to be able to lift heavy objects off of truck beds and put them in the correctly chalked booth space. It is usually dark so you may need a headlamp. We need a lot of muscle.

Sell tickets, collect donated prizes from vendors, and award prizes.

Volunteers will check the garbage and recycling cans along fair route and when they are full move them to a side street and replace them with empty bins. They might be heavy so make sure you can lift heavy cans and roll them:)

Distribute power cords and hoses along the fair route. Help vendors find their connections.

Check water stations during the day and put out more cups and water bottles as needed. Muscle is needed. The water bottles are heavy and you will lift them and move them. Volunteers need to be able to lift heavy items. Because this is such a taxing position it will be for specific blocks for each volunteer.

Place barricades to close streets the morning of the fair, and remove at the end of the fair. Place signage at barricades.

Kathryn Wright will add the list of Volunteers. She has her own list of people to volunteer. They will keep the art safe, and ask people to vote for the people’s choice award.

The task is to get the equipment from the GACC storage unit prior to the fair, Volunteers will deliver it to the street fair route and take the equipment back to the storage unit after the fair. The GACC will rent a Uhaul truck.

Fold tables and chairs, and pack up gear at end of the day. We start at 6pm and finish at 8pm.

Direct vendor traffic during setup 6:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. Help vendors find their assigned booth spaces. Notify street fair leaders of any problems that you cannot solve.

Set up large canvas banners advertising for the street fair ten days before the fair. Generally a 90-minute task on a weeknight. Need to pound in the six foot metal stakes and attach the canvas banners, at eight locations in the Avenues. Two teams of two persons can get this done in less than two hours.

Pick up trash the next morning, arrange trash cans and recycling bins.

Help with putting up banners and street signs.

The primary responsibility of your role will be to enjoy the music! As performers arrive, please offer to assist with their equipment. Also mention you will keep an eye on their equipment as they go to park their cars. Inform them that parking may be difficult, but to find the nearest spot. Responsibilities include: ensuring the performer timeline is met, assisting with performer equipment, watching performer equipment, ensuring intersection is not congested as performers arrive/ depart, provide parking instructions, ensure there are enough chairs, offering water to performers, ensuring no scooters are parked behind or near the stage, checking in with the sound and stage manager to see if anything is needed…. And listening to awesome music.

Volunteers will assist children with creative and fun arts and crafts by helping them locate the provided supplies and engage with ideas of how to create a take home piece of art or one that can remain and be added to throughout the day!
