Red River Water Festival Volunteers Needed

Sign up for a volunteer shift at the Red River Water Festival so that we can offer this educational, fun-filled hands-on learning opportunity for local 4th grade classrooms.

The Red River Water Festival is September 16-20 & 23 at the Hjemkomst Center in Moorhead (16th being set up). Classrooms will rotate through interactive activities to learn about water. #LearntheRed

We need help with the following:

💧Activity Assistant: Assist our presenters with interactive fun activities to teach 4th graders about the importance of water (possible topics include water properties, wetlands, fish, conservation, quality, history, etc.) Possible tasks could include prepping and handing out supplies to students, holding up signage for presenters, and cleaning up before the next class rotates in.

💧Timers: Give signals to our presenters to let them know it is time to rotate classrooms.

💧On-call volunteers: Willing to fill in when the unexpected happens and we have last-minute openings? Sign up to be “on call” to fill in for activity assistant and timer positions.

💧Set up: September 16, morning and afternoon shifts. Help haul supplies, set up canopies outside, or teacher resource bags inside.

💧Raise canopies

💧Lower canopies

💧Take down after the event: Take down outdoor canopies on Monday, September 23.
