Volunteer

Volunteers are needed to help at the BuffaGLO Fun Run with tasks including greeting and interacting with visitors, directing traffic, assisting in the ticket booth, and spreading holiday cheer. To view the sign-up sheet, please click HERE.

Volunteers must be 15+ for this event.  You must be able to complete the ENTIRE shift.  This is a night event with late end times, so if transportation is a challenge, we ask that you volunteer at another Park event.   If your family is volunteering together, younger volunteers are welcome to serve alongside a parent/guardian.  

This is a great opportunity for schools, corporate, church, or community groups to volunteer and serve together!
