Diwali Festival of Lights - Footprint Maintenance Crew

Description

Event Overview

As a Tear Down & Clean Up volunteer, you are the finishing touch that ensures our community spaces return to their pristine condition. This is a high-energy, "behind-the-scenes" role perfect for someone who enjoys physical activity, working as part of a team, and seeing immediate results. You will work closely with City Staff to efficiently pack up event logistics and leave the venue better than we found it.

Choose Your Impact

  • Proactive Maintenance: Patrol the festival grounds to collect litter and ensure disposal bins are emptied before they overflow, keeping the event space pristine.
