Hi all,
We need many volunteers for the downtown Earth Day Festival! I would love for all of you to promote this event and volunteering opportunity with your friends, colleagues, and students (especially Upper School)- we need about 400 volunteers over the course of four days! National Volunteer Week is April 15-21. So far, we are only about halfway with the number of volunteer sign-ups… The direct link for volunteer sign-ups is http://sbearthday.org/volunteers.
Be a part of the Community Environmental Council’s Earth Day Festival in Santa Barbara. The success of CEC’s Earth Day Festival relies on the energy and hands-on support of our friends and fellow eco-citizens.
When?
Pre-Festival Setup:
Thursday, April 18, 10am-6pm
Friday, April 19, 10am-6pm
Festival:
Saturday, April 20, 7am-7pm
Sunday, April 21, 7am-8pm
Each volunteer shift is a 3-hour commitment.
What Volunteers Do
Volunteers do everything from assisting with vendor check-in, greeting festival guests and conducting crowd counts, working in the Green Car Show area, and helping with the festival’s children’s activities. They also assist with stage management, parking, and social media. Support our ‘Zero-Waste Team’ to ensure that our Earth Day festival produces as little waste as possible.
Start Volunteering Now!
We need your help before the festival as well as the days of the festival! You can start helping today by sharing CEC’s Earth Day Festival with your friends on Facebook and Twitter. Download our “Social Media Guide” for tips and tricks.
High School Volunteers
For high school students, the Santa Barbara Earth Day Festival provides an excellent opportunity to earn required community service hours necessary for graduating.
