A Rally Day is scheduled for Friday, October 28 in the Shelby Center for Science and Technology, Room 160.  We will be preparing the girls' backpacks and presenter kits.  Please let us know on the sign in sheet if you are planning to attend.  Even if you can't help on November 5, Rally Day is a great way to get involved.

Volunteer Opportunities on November 5 Include:

Registration:  We need 8 individuals to work the registration table by handing out name badges to the girls and schedule sheets to their parents/guardians.

Greeter:  We need to have at least 4 individuals to stand behind the registration table to take the girls to the group leaders and ensure that individuals who do not have a badge are not entering the facility.

Runner:  Runners are needed on each floor of the Shelby Center for Science and Technology to assist with classroom transition and any emergencies that may arise. You may be asked to assist the Girls' Team Leaders in bathroom breaks or a presenter with their session. You will be in contact with Volunteer Mission Control.  We need 6 runners.

Workshop Co-Presenter / Team Member:  If you are assisting with a workshop and plan to stay for the entire day, you will need to sign up as a co-presenter/team member.  

Office Volunteer:  If you are able to assist in the two weeks prior event during the day in our office, please contact us at 256-824-6771.
