Volunteer Opportunities

Toy Story Party
Help me create and run a Toy Story Program for our younger patrons. I need some creative and friendly people to work with kids. Helping them with the craft project, creating games, making decorations, etc… We will be taking scenes from the movie Toy Story and designing a unique program around it with crafts, games, stories and a few other things. Dates are Fridays, July 11th, 18th, 25th, August 1st at 11:30 – 12:30ish with a must commit date of August 4th from 11:00-1:00.
Candyland Candy Bar Bingo Helper
Meets Monday, June 23rd 2:30-4:15 ish. I need help breaking down the program and helping bingo players check the winning cards when they get a BINGO.
Design Challenge Bag Stuffers
Wednesday, July 2nd 6:00pm. No brainer: I’ve got lots of junk to stuff in bags but it has to be done very precisely. Need someone who pays attention to details.
Minute to Win It Game Timers/Keepers
I’m looking for 8-10 people to watch players take the Minute to Win It challenges. You would be responsible for explaining the rules of the challenge, timing them, and giving them raffle tickets if they have completed the challenge. Have to be okay with gently saying “time is up… you did not complete the challenge…try again.” You will also be responsible for helping me break down tables, chairs, etc. July 31st from 2:00-4:00pm.
Trivia Game Score Keeper
I need 4-5 people to be scorekeepers and team leaders for a crazy game of trivia where I give the players the questions and they have to race to find answers. I’ll teach you the rules when you volunteer. It helps if you’re good at paying attention and have a calculator to keep the scores. Meets Wednesday, August 6th from 5:30-7:30.
Storytime Craft Prep
I’m looking for a few people to help cut (really well) and prep story time crafts for the Librarian’s Fall Storytime. Careful attention to detail is needed.
Email me if you are interested and we can set up a day for you to come in. No more than one day a week 1-2 hours per week. This volunteer op will last as long as there are materials to prep.
