Volunteer for TBF!

Volunteers Needed
Saturday, May 16th, 2015
Tenth Annual Greater Rochester Teen Book Festival

Are you a teen in grades 6 through 12 who thinks authors are rock stars?  Or perhaps, you are a college student or adult who loves to make magic happen? 

If so, come help us make the Tenth Annual Greater Rochester Teen Book Festival an experience to remember!  We need nearly 200 volunteers to ensure the event runs smoothly.

This year’s Greater Rochester Teen Book Festival (TBF) will take place on Saturday, May 16, 2015, at Nazareth College.  Every year, this free one-day community event connects thousands of teens with award-wining authors from across the country.

Each volunteer will be assigned to work a minimum of a two-hour shift. Volunteers are needed to serve as author assistants, festival greeters, festival guides, and sales assistants in the TBF merchandise area. Those volunteers available all day may apply to serve as author assistants, but these positions are very limited.

Apply soon! We’d love to have you join the TBF team!

All volunteers must attend a mandatory training session at Nazareth College on Tuesday evening, May 12.  We will email you details about this training along with your volunteer assignment. You are responsible for your own transportation to and from this mandatory training and the festival itself.  You will need to provide an e-mail address where confirmations and details can be sent about volunteer assignments.  If requested, those students who volunteer may receive a document certifying the number of community service hours they provide.

Ready to sign up?  Simply go online to complete the TBF Volunteer Submission Form: https://nazareth.wufoo.com/forms/tbf-volunteer-form/
Volunteer Registration is open February 23 – March 27, 2015
   
If you have additional questions, you can also send us a message: tbfvolunteers@gmail.com

Forms must be completed no later than Friday, March 27.
 
Thank you and we hope you will be able to join us at Teen Book Fest 2015!
