6th Annual TMBBQ Fest - Volunteer Opportunity
TMBBQ Fest is currently looking for volunteers who would like to
work 2-3hrs and in return get in free to the festival! We were hoping if any of
the 4-H members or parents would like to volunteer as a group or separately. We
think it's something that everyone will enjoy, getting to eat some of the best
BBQ in the state of Texas and in exchange a few hours of light work.
If you think this is something you or your club would be
interested in then contact Boonie at the information listed below.
As a TMBBQ Festival volunteer you’ll receive:
* FREE admission to the Festival ($80 value)
* An official “Pit Crew” t-shirt – not
available for purchase (priceless!)
* And the chance to show your Texas Monthly
pride and taste the state’s finest BBQ!!
There are a limited number of volunteer positions
available, so CLICK HERE <http://goo.gl/forms/UsjSkDO3jZ>
to sign up now to reserve your spot and take advantage of your volunteer perks.
Not interested in volunteering this year? Here’s the
ticket low-down:
* Tickets will go on sale to the general
public on Friday, September 11
* General admission tickets are $80 each with
access from 1 PM – 4 PM
* VIP tickets are $145 each offering: one hour
advanced entry (12 PM-4 PM), a TMBBQ recyclable tote bag, two complimentary
drink tickets and other perks.
Please note: Volunteers receive access onto the Festival
grounds from 1PM-4 PM only. Volunteers do not receive access during the VIP
hour from 12 PM-1 PM unless you are scheduled to work during that time or if
you purchase a VIP ticket. Each volunteer shift is approximately 2 – 3 hours
long, and shifts can begin as early as 6:30 AM and run as late as 6 PM on the
day of the Fest. Please note in the comments of the volunteer form if you have
any scheduling restrictions as shifts range from 6:30AM to 6:00PM. However,
we’d like you to enjoy the Festival while at work and play, so let us know if
you’d like to join the fun.
We hope to see you there!

All applications must be submitted by October 1, 2015. Applications will be reviewed by a committee, with the winner selected by the Conor Lynch Foundation. Applicants must be between the ages of 16-21 on October 25, 2015, the date the awardee is announced. Questions may be directed to info [at] NOYS.org.
