Recruiting volunteers

A fun run needs helpers: a water station, the finish line, setting up. List those jobs as volunteer roles, and families sign up for them on your event's volunteer page. Volunteer sign-ups are included in the Premium plan.

Adding roles

1. In the event's menu, open Volunteers and choose Volunteer Roles.
2. Choose Add Role.
3. Give it a Title ("Water station"), an optional Description of what it involves and when, and how many People needed.
4. Sort order sets where it's listed: lower numbers first.

The volunteer page

Once your event has a role, its page shows a Volunteer section linking to the volunteer page, and Public Page on the Volunteers screens opens it too. It lists each role with how many are still needed and the first names of those who have signed up. Email addresses are never shown.

• Someone chooses Sign up on a role, enters their name and email, and ticks "I'm not a robot".
• They get an email confirming the role, with your event's date and location. Replies go to your organization's contact email.
• A role stops taking sign-ups once it's full, and the same email address can sign up for a role only once.
