EWOB INFORMATION FOR VOLUNTEERS

The EWOB festival has developed into the wonderful event it currently is, also thanks to the help of all our volunteers who, with joy and relentless effort, make the audience and bands feel at home.
Our volunteers are scheduled in shifts of 2 hour. A volunteer can do more than one shift, as long as these do not conflict with each other in terms of time. Volunteers can choose to perform the following tasks:

- Musical instrument storage
Visitors and musicians can leave their instruments in a secure room. The owner of the instrument receives a ticket with a number, while the same number is attached to the instrument case. When the owner can show the correct number, he/she can collect the instrument whenever he/she wishes.

- Cash register
Tickets are sold during the three days of the festival to all who wish to enter the festival or reside at the EWOB campsite.

- Entry check
Every visitor must have a wrist band in the correct color to enter the venue. At the entrance the color and wristband are checked.

- Campsite
In the grounds next to the festival-hall there is a dedicated space for campers and tents for volunteers, musicians and visitors. All day long there will be volunteers at the camp-site to safeguard the safety and to answer any questions.

- Sales Booth
To raise some extra funds for our organization there is a special sales booth where itemse sold to support EWOB, such as T-Shirts, CD’s, raffle tickets,etc. This stand is located next to the entrance, and is also used as an info desk for all visitors and musicians.
