Volunteers for this team need to love interacting with people and feel comfortable representing our community. Volunteer positions are a minimum of 4 hours to receive a free Fair ticket. The shifts for these volunteer positions go by very quickly and it's typically a great deal of fun.
We will be following the CDC's and Commonwealth of Virginia's health safety guidelines and all volunteers will be required to do so as well. Expectations will be addressed as we get closer to the Fair.
As an ambassador for the Foundation and the village welcoming visitors to Waterford, please follow the golden rule and treat fairgoers, residents, staff and other volunteers as you would wish to be treated. Be polite, helpful and if you are unable to assist someone find someone who can (e.g., your supervisor, information booth, sheriff's deputy, EMTs, staff, etc.).
Waterford is a historic village and many of the properties are not accessible by wheel chair. If you have any special needs we should be made aware of regarding the projects you are volunteering for, please add a note in the application.
Dress: business casual dress/casual dress is fine. Please dress for the weather but do not wear shorts or ripped shirts. Comfortable walking shoes are a must. This is a rain or shine event.
Volunteers must have their own transportation to and from their shift(s), and check in 15 minutes prior to their shift.
By entering the Fair premises, you consent to being filmed and/or photographed for promotional purposes. Any person desiring not to have their photo/video taken or distributed must contact oldschool@waterfordfoundation.org in writing of his/her/their intentions before the event.
Foundation staff and Volunteer Leads have the right to terminate any volunteer's shift at any time.
If you have any questions, please contact us at fairadmin@waterfordfoundation.org or 540-882-3018.
