During the Festival:

Gates: Stand at the gates, take money, greet all the pretty people. Work
it sugar,  Under the Volcano relies on donations to exist.

Info Table: Sit in the shade and answer questions. Questions like: When is
the last bus? What band is on stage right now? Where are the workshops?
Also includes directing incoming volunteers to their stations.  You will
be equipped with information and walkie talkies. You will feel smart and
powerful.

Children’s Area: Play with kids! Art! Sports! Fun! Sign up quick, this
area always fills up first! Also, as a sub category: child care.  We need
a few volunteers to provide child care for other volcano volunteers,
please specify if you would like this position.

First Aid: Do you have first aid? Do you like seeing blood? Are you handy
with bandages?

Security: Feel tough, be tough, but peace sister, no rough stuff.

Parking: Direct cars to empty parking spaces, chastise single occupancy
vehicles, get to say “No, your other left, sir”

Food:	Feed volunteers, munch on stuff when people aren’t looking.


After the Festival:

Take Down: Break down the stages, pick up garbage. More fun than you might
think.
