VOLUNTEERING IS AT THE HEART OF FALL FAIR
AND WE WANT YOU TO GET IN ON IT!

Our volunteers take over the church the week before our big event, transforming our 12,000 square foot church into a mixed market featuring everything (well almost) you can imagine. It's a study in Unitarian Universalist principles in action: volunteers having fun, getting to know each other, caring for each other, overcoming problems more or less gracefully, laughing, and working together to a common cause.
During the Fair, it's our volunteers who direct traffic, make change (and Change - with a focus on reuse, repurpose, and redistribution), pack parcels, and pour coffee. Afterwards it's volunteers who count money, fold tables, and make sure any unpurchased items are contributed to the community or recycled responsibly. It takes many people to organize and run an event as large as FirstU’s Fall Fair. There are varied jobs that need to be filled leading up to the Fair on all days from October 11 to 15, on October 16 itself, and for post sales and cleanup on October 17 and 18. |
