• Information Table
  Give directions, answer questions regarding locations and times, and help locate specific people as requested. This job requires familiarity with maps of building and schedule of activities; maps and schedules will be provided.
• Timing and Monitoring
  Timers use a stopwatch to time performance and documentary projects in accordance with National History Day rules. Monitors control the flow of participants and spectators in and out of the four presentation rooms. Judging of performances and documentaries depends heavily upon timers and monitors, and volunteers for these jobs must make a firm commitment to serve.

Duties will be assigned to volunteers either just before the fair begins or when they check in at the information desk at the fair. Our primary volunteer days and times are
Thursday afternoon 3:00 - 6:00 p.m.
Friday 7:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

You can join us as a volunteer for just an hour or for as long as you have time. You may set your volunteer schedule however is convenient for you.
