PUBLICITY CREW

SHIFT:  TODAY THROUGH APRIL 5

Come to the JWW Office to pick up posters to distribute to your neighborhood businesses and fliers to give to friends and family.  Tweet, Facebook, call and text about the Walk. This is a job for everyone!

SET UP CREW

SHIFT: SUNDAY, APRIL 7 FROM 10:00 A.M.  12:30 P.M.

Come early and help create the magic of our Global Village.  We will provide juice, coffee and bagels.  You will provide the muscle or organizing or decorating labor.

WALK ROUTE MONITOR

SHIFT: SUNDAY, APRIL 7 just before and during the Walk [ADULTS ONLY]

This is one of the most important jobs of the day. You will stand at a crosswalk along the Walk route to make sure that people cross safely.  Once your station has cleared you can join the Walk yourself!

REGISTRATION/CHECK-IN CREW

SHIFT: SUNDAY, APRIL 7 FROM NOON – 1:00 P.M.

This daring dozen will face the thousands of pre-registered and walk-in participants when they first arrive on Walk Day.  We will train you on the procedures for welcoming those who have already signed up, registering those who did not do so before Walk Day and processing fundraising money brought to the Walk for submission. If you are very detailed, have nerves of steel and love working with people- this is the spot for you!

“GO TO” CREW

SHIFT: SUNDAY, APRIL 7 FROM 12:30 P.M. – 1:00 P.M. OR 1:00 P.M. – 2:00 P.M.

Help with sign decorating, water distribution, T-shirt surgery and other tasks as needed. You will be the general help crew who we can rely on to help wherever help is needed!

SALES CREW

SHIFT: SUNDAY, APRIL 7 FROM NOON – 2:30 P.M. (1 HOUR SHIFTS)

Whether it is merchandise or food, we need a dedicated Global Village sales force to help raise money the day of the Walk. A special perk is that you get to talk to lots of great people while you work!

T-SHIRT CREW

SHIFT: SUNDAY, APRIL 7 FROM NOON – 1:00 P.M.

These tremendous twelve volunteers will make sure that all Walkers have T-shirts in the proper size.  You will help set up the T-shirt area distribute the shirts and box up the extras (if any are left!)  This is where the “cotton meets the crowd”.  Calm and quick crew members will be standing their entire shift.

STRIKE CREW

SHIFT: SUNDAY, APRIL 7 FROM 2:30 P.M. 3:30 P.M.

Pack up the tents, tables and displays after the Walk. Bring muscles and energy after a long day!

ALL VOLUNTEERS CAN TAKE PART IN THE WALK ITSELF.  IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO WALK, CONSIDER TAKING A SPOT IN ONE OF OUR WALK AREAS FOR PEOPLE WHO REMAIN BEHIND.
