Volunteer Opportunity Details:

If you like dealing with people, help us sell First Night buttons! You'll also be selling tickets for our big events at the Flynn Center and Memorial Auditorium. If you like, bring a couple friends and do it together!

You can work in our downtown office at 230 College Street, at the Burlington Town Center, or one of our other downtown locations....or you can help us deliver buttons throughout the Burlington area to local banks, supermarkets and stores.

We need volunteers on weekdays starting in November and, after Thanksgiving, on weekends as well! We especially need button and ticket sellers the day of the event, December 31st.

If you agree to at least 3 hours of volunteer time, you'll get a FREE FIRST NIGHT BUTTON!

Retail experience is a plus since volunteers will be working with button and ticket sales. Attention to detail is important. For those of you helping us with online sales, feeling comfortable working with computers is required.
