Spring Fling volunteer registration closes April 30

Spring Fling attendees play cornhole on the Memorial Mall during the 2024 appreciation event.

The Spring Fling coordinating committee is inviting employees to register as volunteers for Spring Fling — the annual appreciation event for faculty, staff, graduate student staff and retirees — set for 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. May 22 at and around Memorial Mall.

Each year approximately 250 volunteers are needed to help make Spring Fling a success. Volunteers can select from a variety of shifts and responsibilities, including setting up tables, decorations and balloons; assisting with food lines and drink refills; directing attendees at the information booth; staffing check-in, checkout and checkpoint spots for the 3-mile fitness walk; and emptying trash and recycling containers.

Available time slots and positions are listed on the online volunteer registration form, which closes at 5 p.m. April 30. Those who sign up to volunteer will receive a Spring Fling T-shirt and three additional entry tickets for the door prize drawing.

More information about this year’s event, including activities that require registration by May 16, can be found on the Spring Fling website.
