Set-up Crew
Meet at Journey Church at 12:00 PM. The set-up crew will load
and unload the truck, move and ready all of the pieces needed for the event.
There are jobs for all strengths. With only 2.5 hours to get everything ready to go,
we need lots of people to help with set-up.
Registration
Be at the venue at 2:30 PM. The Registration team is responsible
for getting all of our excited egg hunters into the event. A positive, friendly
personality is required to greet and check-in the participants. You'll hand out t-
shirts and collect information from walk-ins.
Parking
Be the keeper of the cones! Help families navigate to the correct
designated parking areas and be one of the first impressions of the Special Egg
Event! Meet at the event venue at 2:30PM. Dress appropriately for weather
outdoors.
Floaters
Be at the event venue at 2:30 PM. Floaters need to be flexible and
willing to help in any area, from parking to an egg hunt. Or helping serve food or
hauling a garbage bag. You'll be the extra manpower to get tasks done and
answer questions as you float throughout the event.
Beeping Egg Hunt
Be at the event venue at 2:30 PM. You'll be responsible for
turning on and setting out the beeping eggs. These eggs need to be turned on
only moments before the hunt so they don't distract the vision impaired egg
hunters. Some hunters might need help, others need wide berth, so your
judgment will help you during the event.
Quiet Egg Hunt
Be at the event venue at 2:30 PM. Volunteers for this egg hunt
will help setup the eggs and get the egg hunters ready and in the right area. The
quiet egg hunt will be further away from the other activities, and distractions.
Magnetic Egg Hunt
Be at the event venue at 2:30 PM. Volunteers will set out the
magnetic eggs, and help run the hunt. We'll also need people to hand out the
magnetic poles and swap the magnetic eggs for prize filled eggs.
Activities
Be at the event venue at 2:30 PM. At the Special Egg Event there are
lots of activities for the children and families to do before or after their egg hunt.
We need lots of friendly people to run the various activities. You might help color,
build a craft, do a ring toss, or guide a mascot around for photos.
First Aid Station
Be at the event venue at 2:30 PM. Are you an experienced
nurse or care provider? Have you helped with children who have special needs?
We need a couple people with the right skills to help ensure that we have a safe
environment.
