MARCH 2008 Volunteer Update
Volunteer Scheduling
March is a pre-May scheduling and meeting month. Your volunteer committee leadership will be getting in touch with you about scheduling your volunteer participation. Accurate scheduling ensures your volunteer commitment is maximized. Memphis in May asks for a minimum commitment of 12 volunteer hours accrued though the month of May. If you have any questions about your committee responsibility, consult your committee Chair.
New Volunteer Training
The training will educate all new volunteers on the events of Memphis in May and the volunteer program. The training is mandatory for all new volunteers who will be participating in the 2008 Memphis in May International Festival. The training is optional for all returning volunteers. At the New Volunteer Training, volunteers will have a chance to meet with their committee leaders to answer specific questions about their roles in making Memphis in May happen.
About: Volunteering for Memphis in May can be confusing and disorienting without proper preparation and meetings. In the Next Week or so, you will be hearing from you committee’s volunteer leadership about upcoming committee meetings. The committee meetings will help you cover the details and scheduling of your volunteer involvement. The New Volunteer Orientation is a chance to cover the subtle basics of volunteering; where to go, how to check-in, parking, meals, etc.
The meeting is required because of how important the information is to successfully volunteering.
If you are unable to attend or live out of town, please contact the volunteer office (volunteer@memphisinmay.org) to be mailed a detailed information packet. You will still be able to volunteer.
