A schedule and departments are listed below. Sign-up for one that interests you and the department Chair will contact you about the details.
Here is what you can expect:

- All Hands on Deck: Join us for pizza and then help to set-up various departments in the tents they will be using. All ages are invited to help.
- Includes: carrying items outside from the sanctuary, placing items on tables, pricing, etc. Items are not heavy and easily carried.
- Great Furniture Move: We have a TON of furniture donations this year so we need 30 or more people to move the furniture out of storage to the tents. Pizza will be served! We will work until the furniture is all moved so please come when you are able.
