Stanley Arts - Treasure Hunt Events Volunteer
Could you help people along the route or with clues if they are stuck, monitoring the clues, helping the flow of people (staggered groups due to Covid restrictions) and assisting with sign ups, helping set up/set down. This would be a really fun event for everyone involved and we can provide snacks/food and travel expenses (if local).
Contact Kat at cc@stanleyarts.org for more information.
