Be a Volunteer

There are two ways to help on the 3-Day. The major difference is how much time you have to commit.

Crew

You should register as a crew member if you can dedicate yourself to three full days, plus attending a crew team meeting on the Thursday afternoon before the event. Crew members (except medical crew members) must raise at least $100 in order to participate. Click here for information about crew.

Volunteer

Volunteer opportunities are generally a commitment of a few hours during a single day.
