Volunteer Action
If you choose to help, here is a partial list of what you may be doing as a volunteer:
The Bash is divided into 4-hour shifts. As the day progresses the work of the volunteers changes. This gives you a general idea of what you might be doing if you are a Bash volunteer at a given hour.
Remember to smile. It’s a party. And you are the host.
| MORNING 6–10 | Put up barricades, close down street. Escort vendors to assigned location. | |
| MID-DAY 10–2 | Checking on vendors. Troubleshooting. Eat. | |
| AFTERNOON 2–6 | Guide our guests to the Compost Bins, Recycling Bins, and Trash Bins. Watching for and picking up litter. Did you eat? There will be bottled water for you at the Volunteer booth. Consult with security to discourage carry-ins. | |
| AFTER DARK 6–10 | We will be busy helping people use Compost Bins, Recycling Bins, and Trash Bins. Watching for carry-ins. Eat now. We will continue to be busy helping people use Compost bins, Recycling bins, and Trash bins. Watching for carry-ins. Don’t forget to eat. Spend drink ticket. | |
| CLOSE 10-MIDNIGHT | The pressure is off. Sitting is allowed. Many hands make quick work. There will be litter to pick up. The Bash volunteers have taken particular pride in the spotless look of the street on Sunday morning. | |
| BARRICADE GUARD | After the litter brigade we need about ten volunteers with cell phones to watch the barricades. Traffic is not allowed until the stages are moved. This could go to 1 a.m., maybe. The Milwaukee Police have been very helpful during this period by using their squads to block KK Avenue. | |
| GLOW | The street becomes quiet. Sit a moment and wonder at what we’ve done together. If you have the energy let’s get a beer. If you still have a ticket, I will buy. | |
| OCTOBER 25, tentatively | Public meeting to help decide how to distribute Bash profits you helped raise. | |
| All Day | Composting, Recycling. Trashing only trash. We are teaching people how to separate. You will learn from volunteers who have studied composting with Will Allen’s crew, and have been trained in Recycling by the City. | |
