The Volunteer Sign-up page posted that they needed people to help with the morning set-ups. They would set up the tents, water stations, and village stations.

They also need volunteers for lunch crews to help prepare the lunch and assist the BQ staff.

Besides, they need teams to handle various sports, such as kickball, soccer, and track and field.
