The Official BAM13 Volunteer Sign-Up Thread
VOLUNTEERS: WE WANT YOU!
We need trustworthy & reliable people, as this is a community event driven by charitable giving. If we find out someone is stealing from Nathan & his family, we'll make damn sure everyone knows who you are on EVERY automotive forum there is. Period. Many of us are known in more than just the Subaru world. Hell! You'll be put on blast on every & any social media outlet known to man! With that outta the way…
If you are new to i-club, what better way to get more involved and show you are a productive member! Or you could be a 10-yr BAiC vet or somewhere in between. If you jumped in & gave a helping hand last yr (Thanks again for that!), now you can get on board early especially since there are rumblings that Ray is trying to score a hook-up for the generous volunteer crew. Don’t hold him or me to that just yet… he will try. And don’t get caught up on that since this event is about us getting together as a community and giving back, right?
Each job will include a brief description and task requirements, but most job titles are obvious as to what you’ll be doing. These will be updated as the event draws closer, especially concerning what time you report in & how long you’ll be expected help out. The number of volunteers requested will also be updated as needed.
Please PM your team captain by midnight Sunday, August 4th. We'll be finalizing the rosters to be sure every volunteer who signed up is still committed to his/her assigned tasks and is clear on report-in times, expected shift duration, etc.
PARKING
First off, we need you to show up early... well before any caravans arrive. With coordination from Matt V (AKA tecnica tech), you'll direct the vendors and carshow participants where they're supposed to be. General parking will be all the other spots in the very large & spacious lot next to our picnic site, so this should be easy to manage unlike last year’s spread-out lots. We’ll need the parking crew there by 8:30am. We expect you should be finished before 11:30.

EVENT CHECK-IN
Basically, attendees tell you if they pre-paid or not. You will verify prepaid attendees from the list or will collect payment from non-prepaid attendees. Then, you'll give them their wristband to put on ASAP, informing them that it is what let's security know they're allowed at our event as well as let's the lunch service crew & security know they're good to go for grub, too. Prepays will also receive a single $2 raffle ticket & custom event sticker. To be considered for this position, you likely will have to be vetted or vouched for by someone on the organizing committee. Please report in by 10:15am. We expect we’ll need your assistance until about 12:30.

RAFFLE TICKET SALES
Are you outgoing? Have a knack for sales? Then we want you! Sometimes, you will sell tickets at the raffle booth near the check-in & Tshirt/hoodie area. Other times, you will walk throughout the venue –- carshow, vendor row, picnic & activities areas –- to sell tickets. You’ll roam with a team member and/or security staff.
We’ll have at least two shifts for this crew, as you’ll be selling from “gates open” right up until the raffle drawing. This is a VITAL team for the event. It’s a HUGE part of why we hold this annual meet. To be considered for this position, you likely will have to be vetted or vouched for by someone on the organizing committee. Please report in by 10:15am. First shift goes from 10:15 to 12:30; second one goes from 12:30 to 2:45.

T-SHIRT & HOODIE DISTRIBUTION
Duh?!? You will help distribute the event apparel -- Tees N hoodies. You'll verify pre-orders from the list of what type, quantity & size that a person ordered. You will also sell the VERY LIMITED amount of official swag that will available for purchase at BAM. To be considered for this position, you likely will have to be vetted or vouched for by someone on the organizing committee. Please report in by 10:15am. We expect we’ll need your assistance until about 12:30.

SPORTS & REC
We need folks to bring some items that can be used for entertainment at the event – anything from a football, soccer ball, to a whole volleyball or badminton setup. You're not limited to those items; be creative and bring ANYTHING that you think people may enjoy. If you agree to bring a football (or whatever), your name will be placed below with the item you signed up for next to your name. That means you are officially signed up to bring that said item! Don't sign up unless you are serious! Also, be sure your name is on the item(s) you volunteer to bring or is easily identifiable. We’ll have to work out a collateral system (maybe your ID) to check out the b@lls, frisbees, etc.
We plan to have some fun & competitive activities -– tug-o-war, bocce ball, etc. How do contests of bugeyes vs. hawkeyes, caravan vs. caravan, under 20 vs. 40 & over, etc. sound?
We’re also looking to do an Instagram scavenger hunt!

COOKS
Since we're BBQing, we're going to need quite a few people to man the grills. Each person will cook for a MAXIMUM of 1 hour at a time; we’ll have two teams of 4. In the past, people have worked the grill for a good 3 hours or more! We don’t want to overwork anyone. Your assistance is GREATLY appreciated! We really need you guys, so thank you in advance!
Please note that the veggie option must be cooked on a separate grill using separate grilling tools! Thank you.

CLEAN-UP
Looking for 6 people that are willing to lend a hand with keeping the park clean during the event as well as staying a little after to make sure it is tidy. We are all adults and can put trash in the proper place, so it should not be that big of an issue. I know it's not the most desirable job, but someone has to take care of it and many hands make light work.

SECURITY
You’ll be tasked to ensure safety & order. Should things get dicey – i.e. people cannot behave themselves or get along with others, you’ll step in to neutralize the situation. Please report-in at 10:15. You'll be expected to "work" the entire event, but please be sure to enjoy yourselves the whole time as well.

I've done all this kinda stuff for Scouting events in the past. If you need to fill a spot anywhere, just drop me in, no preference, and I'll do cleanup atop it as well.
