VOLUNTEER DUTIES:

Most volunteer roles will have the following requirements:

  • Attire: black slacks and a white collared shirt or blouse with comfortable black shoes
  • Time commitments the day of the event are typically for 4 hours between 8:00am - 11:00pm depending on your specific duties.

Guide
You will welcome our guests at the entrance to the Ritz-Carlton and direct them to the Ballroom. In addition to a warm greeting, you will provide information and assistance that will ensure an incredible guest experience. If you enjoy people, have excellent customer service skills and love a party - if you're a Rotarian, this is the volunteer job for you!

Greeter
You will welcome our guests and direct them to the registration table. You'll give our guests warm greeting, an identification bracelet and provide information and assistance that will ensure an incredible guest experience. If you enjoy people, have excellent customer service skills and love a party - and as a Rotarian, this is the volunteer job for you!

Silent Auction Attendants
If you prefer a bit of mingling with the guests combined with a passion for providing information about the auction items, this could be the role for you. It takes a certain talent and skill to know when to approach an interested guest and strike up a conversation about offerings. Once you get to know a few of the bidders, you'll know who to find to remind that they've been outbid, so they can get back in the game!

These roles include an early, exclusive volunteer dinner, with snacks and beverages available throughout the evening.

If you're more of a behind-the-scenes person who enjoys being part of the production, but wishes for a less public way to have a huge impact, there are two important job responsibilities awaiting your skills:

Event Setup
There is such a limited time for setup before a major event that it is so appreciated to have all hands on deck! These key volunteers will start work at 8am on Saturday, November 14th. Responsibilities will include using carts and elevators to bring décor, and other supplies up from the Ritz-Carlton loading dock, helping with the actual setup, and generally providing support wherever a pair of hands is needed. Your assistance may be required for a few hours or up until 4pm.

Event Teardown
The day after a party is also a big job - just doing everything in reverse. There will be décor that requires careful re-packing to ensure items can travel without sustaining damage as well as bringing most remaining items to the loading dock or another staging area for loading into vehicles. These responsibilities will begin at 8am on Sunday, November 15th and should take no more than 2-3 hours.

Your assignments and tasks will be provided when you check-in the day of your volunteer service.
