Welcome 2024 Deco Volunteers!

Deco Week starts December 26th. Deco Week will be from December 26th thru December 31st.

Signups for Deco Week volunteering will be done through the iVolunteer website.

Volunteer Guidelines: 

  • iVolunteer opens mid–October

    • AFTERNOON SHIFT  1:30 PM TO 5:30 PM

    • EVENING SHIFT         7:00 PM TO 10:30 PM

  • If volunteers do not arrive within 20 minutes of shift start, walk-ins may fill in.

  • All volunteers must complete a Release Form. Under 18 must have a parent/guardian signature.  Please fully complete the form (including the Emergency Contact section) and bring it to your first day of work.

  • An adult must accompany any volunteer under 14. The minimum age to volunteer with an adult is 10.

    • Please note that on December 30th and December 31st,  all volunteers on the morning and afternoon shifts must be at least 10 years old.  All volunteers on the evening shift must be at least 14 years old.

  • Jobs may include preparing deco items, dry and floral. Your age, expertise, and the current need for workers will determine your work on the float itself. Workers physically on the float or scaffolding above the float level must be at least 16 years of age.

  • For your protection

    • NO personal items, such as backpacks or purses, are allowed. 

    • NO use of phones or audio devices in the barn. They may remain in your pocket with ringers silent.   

    • Wear old work clothes

    • You MUST wear closed-toed shoes.

    • Bring a warm jacket/sweatshirt, as the barn can get cold unexpectedly.

  • After the morning shift, lunch may be available for a nominal donation for morning volunteers. Dinner for afternoon volunteers MAY be provided by local restaurants (at no charge to volunteers).
