Methacton Post Prom Volunteer Signup
We need over 300 volunteers to make Post Prom a success! We have positions open from Thursday setup through Saturday morning cleanup, and everywhere in between. And of course, we always are in desperate need for the Night Owl shift (2am-6am) so if you don't mind being awake during that timeframe, please consider volunteering then first. Don't worry, there is plenty of free coffee, soda and food for volunteers to keep you going!
There are MANY types of positions over multiple days! They range from Set Up on Thursday through Clean Up on Saturday. We suggest you look through all of them before making your selection(s). Please consider a Night Owl shift (2am-6am) first, as these are always harder to fill than the early shift!
Instructions:
- Show/hide the positions for each day by clicking on each date.
- See who has already signed up for each slot by clicking the "See volunteers" link for a particular position.
- NOTE: Positions that have all their spots filled are hidden by default. If you want to see those, click the "Show Unavailable Positions" button.
- Select one or more positions by clicking the one(s) for which you'd like to volunteer.
- After selecting your position(s), click "Save and Continue" at the bottom.
Note that you do not have to have a child that currently attends MHS to volunteer!
We invite parents with kids in all grade levels to volunteer - this will ensure not only a successful event this year, but also for many years to come!
Age Requirement: Volunteers must be 25 years or older (except where noted).
Clearances Required: All volunteers are required to submit a "Position Volunteer" (not a "Guest Volunteer") application and have clearances through Methacton School District before the event (except where noted). You should start this process ASAP. (Note: If you have already done this within the past 5 years you do not need to repeat it yet.) Get started here
Volunteer Shirts: Event volunteers are required to wear a white shirt the night of Post Prom. You may simply wear your own white shirt or you can buy a Methacton Post Prom logo shirt for $15 at the Volunteer Training session or on-site when you check-in at Post Prom.
Arrival Instructions: Download arrival info for all Volunteers so you know where to park, where to enter, and more!
