Sleigh the games:
Volunteer Opportunity @ $20/hr for Sunrise Rotary Club
Sleigh The Games is a new holiday event sponsored by The Town of Estes Park.
This new holiday adventure event takes place December 12-14 at the Event Center and around town. Sleigh The Games combines over a dozen fun, active, winter-themed games & competitions with great entertainment, holiday charm, and adventures for all ages.
Event organizer, Josh Kravetz, is asking non-profits and clubs like ours to please volunteer at the event.
There are volunteer opportunities for set up Friday 12/12 and on the main event days on Saturday 12/13 and Sunday 12/14. These roles would include: participant check in, games referee, green team, parking direction, event marshals, and a variety of other roles.
They pay $20/volunteer hour and shifts are usually 4 hours. Some roles can accommodate people that need to sit or be stationary. Others require heavy lifting and athleticism. They expect to have around 100 volunteer shifts.
If you are interested in volunteering, click below. Some of us may want to work multiple shifts over the 3 days. Great way to fundraise for EVSR.
