Deadline: Sep 06, 2026
The Banners Return Lead is responsible for the careful removal, inspection, preservation, and storage of all banners, signage, flags, and printed display materials used during the Ride Out of the Darkness® event. These materials are not disposable. They are long-term assets that represent the mission, sponsors, and identity of the event. This role ensures that every banner is handled with care so it can be reused for future events. Improper handling leads to damage, unnecessary reprinting costs, and loss of professional presentation. Preparation begins prior to the event with the creation of a detailed inventory list. This includes every banner and sign, where it will be placed, and where it will be stored after the event. Having this level of tracking prevents items from being overlooked or lost during teardown. During teardown, the Banners Return Lead oversees the safe removal of all materials from both locations. This requires attention and patience. Banners should never be ripped down or pulled aggressively. Zip ties and fasteners must be cut carefully to prevent tearing or damage. Each item is inspected immediately upon removal. Any damage is documented and photographed. Sponsor banners require special attention, as they may need to be returned or handled with additional care. Proper storage techniques are critical. Vinyl banners should always be rolled, not folded, to prevent permanent creases. Fabric banners should be folded neatly along natural seams. Rigid signage like coroplast should be stacked flat to avoid bending. Labeling is another key responsibility. Every item must be clearly marked with the event year, description, and storage location. This ensures quick identification and efficient setup for future events. All hardware associated with banners, such as grommets, bungee cords, and zip ties, should be stored with the corresponding item or in clearly labeled containers. Losing these small components creates unnecessary problems later. Once collected, all materials are transported to the approved storage location and logged into the inventory system. Any missing or damaged items are reported immediately. This role requires patience, organization, and respect for the materials that represent the event. These banners carry the story forward year after year. How they are handled today directly impacts the professionalism and cost efficiency of future events.
Deadline: Sep 06, 2026
The Equipment Return Lead is responsible for tracking, collecting, inspecting, and coordinating the return or storage of all equipment used during the Ride Out of the Darkness® event. This includes rented equipment, borrowed items, and organization-owned assets across both the starting location and rally site. Every item used during the event carries financial and operational value. Tents, tables, chairs, cones, staging elements, signage, radios, and infrastructure must all be accounted for. This role ensures that nothing is lost, misplaced, or returned incorrectly. Preparation begins well before the event. The Equipment Return Lead develops a master inventory list that includes item descriptions, quantities, ownership status, vendor contacts, and return deadlines. This document becomes the backbone of accountability throughout the entire event lifecycle. During event setup, the Lead verifies that all delivered equipment matches the inventory list. Any discrepancies are addressed immediately to prevent issues during teardown. Staging areas for equipment return are pre-determined to ensure a smooth and organized collection process. When teardown begins, this role becomes highly active. The Lead coordinates with clean-up teams to ensure that all equipment is collected from every zone and transported to designated staging areas. Organization is critical here. Equipment must be grouped by vendor or ownership type to prevent confusion during return. Each item is inspected before being returned. Any damage must be documented and photographed immediately. This protects the organization from unnecessary charges and ensures transparency with vendors and the Finance Director. Timing is everything in this role. Many rental vendors require next-day pickup or strict return windows. The Equipment Return Lead ensures all logistics are confirmed and executed on schedule, preventing late fees or penalties. For organization-owned equipment, the responsibility shifts to proper storage. Items must be transported to approved storage locations, labeled if necessary, and stored in a way that preserves their condition for future use. This role requires attention to detail, strong organization, and proactive communication. Missing even a single item can result in unnecessary expenses or logistical complications. At its core, this role is about ownership. Every item used during the event remains the organization’s responsibility until it is safely returned or stored. Precision, accountability, and follow-through define success in this position.
This role is responsible for maintaining hygiene standards across the entire event through handwashing stations, sanitizer placement, and general cleanliness monitoring. This is a proactive role. It is not just about setting up stations. It is about maintaining them continuously. Before the event opens, all handwashing stations must be set up, stocked, and fully operational. Sanitizer dispensers must be placed in high-traffic areas where they are visible and easily accessible. Throughout the event, this Lead performs regular checks to ensure all stations remain stocked. Soap, paper towels, and sanitizer should never run out, especially near food areas. In addition to hygiene stations, this role monitors general cleanliness in high-traffic areas. Small issues like spills or debris are addressed immediately to prevent hazards. Communication with the Sanitation Coordinator is constant. Any issue that requires additional support is escalated immediately. At the end of the event, all stations are broken down and removed, ensuring nothing is left behind. This role is about awareness and consistency. Clean, stocked hygiene stations signal that the event is well-organized and thoughtfully executed. Participants notice the details. This role controls those details.
Deadline: Sep 06, 2026
The Lost & Found Lead manages all lost item operations for the event, including collection, logging, storage, and return of items to their owners. This role is about trust. When someone loses something important, their entire experience shifts. This position exists to solve that problem quickly and professionally. The Lost & Found station must be clearly marked and easy to locate at the rally site. This becomes the central hub for all lost items. Every item turned in must be logged immediately with a detailed description, location found, and time. Organization is critical. Items should be stored in a structured way that allows quick identification and retrieval. A disorganized lost and found creates frustration and delays. Communication is a key part of this role. The Lead coordinates with the MC or stage team to make periodic announcements about found items. This increases the chances of reconnecting items with their owners during the event. High-value items such as phones, wallets, keys, and medications require immediate attention and secure handling. These items should never sit unattended or unlogged. At the end of the event, all unclaimed items are secured and transferred according to organizational policy. Proper documentation ensures accountability and transparency. This role requires attention to detail, organization, and a service mindset. It is not just about storing items. It is about actively reconnecting people with what they’ve lost. Handled correctly, this role turns a stressful moment into a positive experience.
The Porta Potty Placement & Restock Lead is responsible for ensuring all restroom units are properly placed, stocked, and maintained throughout the event. This role is hands-on and highly active. It requires constant monitoring and quick response to changing conditions. Before the event opens, the Lead confirms that all units are delivered and placed according to the approved layout. ADA-accessible units must be positioned correctly and remain easily accessible at all times. Each unit must be checked before the event begins. This includes verifying that toilet paper, sanitizer, and basic supplies are stocked and ready. Throughout the event, the Lead conducts routine checks every 60 to 90 minutes. Supplies are restocked as needed, and any issues are reported immediately to the Sanitation Coordinator. This role also ensures that restroom areas remain clean and usable. If a unit becomes out of service, it must be addressed immediately to prevent backups or negative experiences. After the event, the Lead confirms that all units are scheduled for pickup and properly removed. This role requires consistency, awareness, and urgency. Restroom issues escalate quickly if ignored. This position prevents small issues from becoming major problems. Well-maintained facilities are one of the simplest ways to show care for attendees.
The Rally Location Clean-Up Coordinator manages the largest and most complex cleanup operation of the event. This role oversees all teardown activities across the rally site and directs a team of volunteers to restore the entire area. The rally site is high traffic, high impact, and highly visible. It includes vendors, entertainment, seating, and multiple operational zones. Cleaning it requires structure and leadership. This Coordinator assigns volunteers to specific zones and ensures all areas are covered simultaneously. No zone is left unmanaged. Teardown begins immediately after closing announcements. Timing and coordination are critical. Vendors must clear their spaces, equipment must be collected, and trash must be removed efficiently. The Coordinator oversees all activity, ensuring that every zone is completed fully before moving on. A full inspection is conducted before requesting the final venue walkthrough. This role requires strong leadership, communication, and the ability to manage multiple moving parts at once. The rally site reflects the scale of the event. Leaving it spotless reflects the professionalism behind it.
The Rally Location Clean-Up Volunteer performs the physical work required to restore the rally site after the event. Each volunteer is assigned to a specific zone and is responsible for completing that zone fully before leaving. Tasks include trash removal, equipment collection, signage breakdown, and general cleanup. Volunteers must follow direction from the Coordinator and work continuously until the job is complete. This role requires physical effort, teamwork, and attention to detail. Every piece of debris matters. This is where execution happens. Without this role, nothing gets finished.
Deadline: Sep 06, 2026
The Sanitation Coordinator is responsible for overseeing all sanitation operations across both the starting location and rally site. This includes restroom placement, handwashing stations, sanitizer distribution, cleanliness standards, and vendor coordination. This role directly impacts participant experience, health, and overall perception of the event. Sanitation is not just a background function. It is one of the fastest ways an event can either feel professional or completely fall apart. If restrooms are unstocked, inaccessible, or poorly maintained, it becomes the thing people remember most. This role prevents that. Planning begins months in advance. The Sanitation Coordinator determines the number of porta potties required based on attendance, confirms ADA-compliant units, and coordinates placement maps for both locations. Vendor selection, delivery schedules, servicing needs, and pickup logistics are all managed through this role. In addition to restrooms, the Coordinator oversees handwashing stations and sanitizer placement throughout high-traffic areas. Food zones, registration areas, and family spaces must all have visible and accessible hygiene resources. On event day, this role is constantly active. The Coordinator monitors conditions across both locations, ensuring that supplies are stocked, units remain functional, and no sanitation issue escalates into a larger problem. They direct the Porta Potty Lead and the Handwashing/Sanitizer Lead, ensuring continuous coverage and quick response times. Communication is critical. If a unit becomes unusable, runs out of supplies, or creates a hazard, it must be addressed immediately. Waiting is not an option. This role requires proactive movement, not reactive cleanup. After the event, the Sanitation Coordinator ensures all units and stations are removed properly and that the site is left clean and fully restored. Vendor follow-up and reporting are also handled here. This role is about dignity. Every person attending the event deserves access to clean, safe, and functional sanitation throughout the entire experience.
This Coordinator manages cleanup at the starting location immediately after the convoy departs. Unlike the rally site, this cleanup happens while the event is still ongoing elsewhere. That requires efficiency and independence. Volunteers are assigned zones and begin teardown as soon as the site clears. All signage, trash, and equipment must be removed, and the site must be fully restored before departure. A full walkthrough with the venue is required before leaving. This role ensures that the event leaves a strong impression from start to finish.
This volunteer role focuses on restoring the starting location after the convoy leaves. Each volunteer is assigned a zone and is responsible for completing all cleanup tasks within that area. Tasks include trash removal, equipment collection, and breakdown of signage. Volunteers must remain in their assigned zone until cleared by the Coordinator. This role is about follow-through. The event may have moved on, but the job here must be finished completely.
Deadline: Sep 06, 2026
The Trash & Recycling Lead is responsible for all waste management operations before, during, and after the event. This includes station placement, monitoring, bag replacement, waste collection, and final disposal. A clean event does not happen at the end. It is maintained continuously throughout the day. This role ensures that trash never becomes visible, overwhelming, or out of control. Before the event begins, the Lead strategically places trash and recycling stations throughout both locations. These must be positioned in high-traffic areas such as vendor rows, food zones, seating areas, and entrances. Each station must be clearly marked to avoid confusion between trash and recycling. During the event, the Lead actively monitors all stations. Bags must be replaced before they overflow. Overflowing trash is one of the fastest ways to create a negative experience and damage the event’s reputation. This role also ensures that disposal logistics are clear. Dumpster locations, access points, and venue requirements must all be confirmed ahead of time. There should never be a moment where a full bag has nowhere to go. During teardown, the Trash & Recycling Lead coordinates a full sweep of both locations. Every bag is collected, tied, and removed. No debris is left behind. This is a full reset of the space. Attention to detail matters. Even small pieces of trash left behind can impact venue relationships. This role ensures that the event leaves no trace. This position requires constant movement, awareness, and follow-through. It is not passive. It is one of the most active roles on the ground throughout the entire event lifecycle. Cleanliness reflects respect. This role ensures that respect is visible everywhere.
