It’s never too early to start planning ahead – just ask any event organizer who works tirelessly to coordinate each detail of running an event. North America’s (and the world’s) newest five-star, the Maryland 5 Star, happening October 14 through 17, is recruiting volunteers early.
Calling all Volunteers!👋 Volunteer captain positions for the inaugural Maryland 5 Star at Fair Hill are available NOW!📆…
Posted by Maryland 5 Star on Friday, April 2, 2021
There is much to be excited for in terms of the Maryland 5 Star, and an all-star crew of supporters and team members are dedicated to creating an excellent experience for all (including, maybe, some spectators). If you’d like to get right up close to the action this fall, sign up now to volunteer. You can learn more info here.
We’ve compiled some resources on volunteering with COVID-19 regulations in mind. We’ll reference this list each week in Volunteer Nation, so take a few moments to familiarize yourself with what’s new and different.
