VOLUNTEERING AT THE FESTIVAL:
Our volunteers work all over the festival in various roles to help support the festival staff, leadership team supervisors, attendees and artists to ensure everyone has an amazing experience.  As a volunteer, you could be assisting with scarecrow making, pumpkin painting, greeting attendees, creating kids crafts, supervising lines at the petting zoo and much more. You can select where and when you would like to volunteer!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT VOLUNTEERING:

Who can volunteer?
Anyone that is at least 13 years old or older can volunteer without an adult!  If you are turning 13 years old in this calendar year, we are able to make an exception so that you can volunteer.  If you are 10-12 years old, you must have an adult volunteer with you.  Unfortunately, we cannot allow anyone younger than 10 years old to volunteer. 

What do I get as a volunteer?
Each volunteer will receive a festival volunteer t-shirt, a snack/beverage coupon for each shift and memories to last a lifetime!

Can I volunteer with a group?
Yes! If you have a group, organization or company that would like to volunteer together, please contact volunteers@celebratefairfax.com for more information.

Can I receive credit for volunteer/community service hours?
Yes!  If you need volunteer credits for school, an organization, etc., you can e-mail the volunteer hour form to
volunteers@celebratefairfax.com or bring it with you when you volunteer.  If you need a letter verifying your volunteer hours, please e-mail volunteers@celebratefairfax.com after the event is over. Please remember the response time will be delayed since we will be cleaning up everything from the event.

Where can I find information on parking, maps, volunteer job descriptions, and other general volunteer questions?
Please go to: 
http://fallforfairfax.com/contact/volunteers/ to find all of the Volunteer Confirmation materials!

I have not received a confirmation packet or e-mail to confirm I am volunteering. What do I do?
Do not worry! You are automatically confirmed to volunteer once you registered.  If you registered closer to the event, your reminder e-mail will be delayed but you can view all the volunteer & event information you need in the links located above the Frequently Asked Questions.

I need to cancel or change my shift. Should I call or e-mail the Volunteer Coordinator to make the adjustment to my schedule?
Nope, you do not need to inform us about your schedule change. You can log back into your account and make the change yourself.  Due to the high volume of calls and e-mails we receive as the event gets closer, we are unable to respond quickly to help make that adjustment.  We will be able to see the change online and if we notice a problem with your account then we will contact you. 

The weather forecast said there is a chance of rain during the festival. Should I still come?
YES, PLEASE! We are a rain or shine event so please dress accordingly. We hope that the weather will be beautiful all weekend but you just never know.  The event will stay open and operate as normal even if there’s some rain in the forecast. 

Do you provide a meal for volunteers that are working multiple shifts?
Unfortunately, we can not provide full meals for our volunteers. We do give each volunteer a snack/beverage coupon for each 3-4 hour shift.  The snack items consist of chips, granola bars, and cookies. If you think you will be hungry during your 3-4 hour shift, please eat before you arrive or grab something quick during your 15 minute break in one of our food courts.
