Newbie VOLUNTEERS 2010
Earn the price of your ticket back!

We are always looking for volunteers to help us run the Gathering. This will mean working twelve hours during the course of the camp or two days on set up/ one day take down week [erecting tents]. We ask new volunteers to buy a ticket first [we’ve been bitten in the past], and when they have completed all their shifts, they will get the ticket price refunded. Please do not volunteer unless you are 100% committed to helping out and doing your assigned shifts which are not changeable. Letting us down during the course of the camp means that other people have to do extra work and you will not be asked to volunteer again.
NB. Preference will be given to veteran volunteers if we have too many applications.
