Volunteers Needed! Poker Run & Sailing Regatta

Volunteers Needed! Poker Run & Sailing Regatta

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

The Civic Long Weekend, the Crane Lake Association will be hosting the first Landmark Lollapaloza Poker Run and our annual Sailing Regatta Events. But we need the the help of some Crane Lake community to run these wonderful programs!

Saturday July 30 - Lollapalooza Poker Run

In order to host this event we are looking for some more volunteers to help out for 2.5-3 hours on Saturday.

Ideal volunteer requirements:

  • Have a boat and anchor and be comfortable anchoring your boat for 2 hours and having participants boats come close to you so you can pass them envelopes.

  • We need at least 2 people per boat for safety and company

  • You’d need to be anchored at your landmark from roughly 12:45 to 3:00pm

  • You may need to ask prepared trivia questions, draw cards and hand out prizes

This could be IDEAL for high school students who need to complete their community volunteer hours!
