Basic Volunteer Information
In general it is a good idea to arrive 15 minutes before the start of your shift to receive materials and ensure a smooth transition between shifts. It is essential that you remain at your assigned job for the full period specified. Others are relying on you, so it is very important to have an alternate individual that will help out with your commitment if you are not able to follow through because of illness or emergency.
The Shipshewana Quilt Festival organizes its volunteers with an activity Volunteer Coordinator for each of the following activities: Quilt & Vendor Show, Education, Enrollment & Check-in and Overall Coordinator.
