Volunteer Jobs
Volunteers are integral to a successful event. We need volunteers for the Duncan-Williams Dragon Boat Races in Memphis who help with a variety of pre-event positions as well as event day needs.
Some of the areas we need volunteers for are:
- Team Loading - Assist paddlers getting into boats, catch boats at dock and help unload paddlers, keep spectators out of load area, and keep the area neat and clean.
- Team Marshaling - Call and line up multiple teams for races.
- Finish Line - Serve as a runner between score keepers and scoreboard. Keep spectators out of finish line area.
- Information Booth - Serve as source of information and hospitality for all competitors, volunteers, and spectators. Event runner, answer questions, maintain lost & found, facilitate emergency response.
- Parking - Direct parking so that it is organized, and there is plenty of room for all participants and spectators.
- Recycling and Trash – Help keep containers emptied throughout the day.
- Clean Up Crews – Assist with equipment clean up at the end.
All volunteers get an event T-shirt! If you are interested in any of these areas or learning about others please email or call Renee Hoyos at renee@tcwn.org or 865-522-7007, ext. 100.
