\Special Ops volunteers are one-part ceremony leaders and one-part crowd control -- and they get the best seat in the house. Our Special Events vary in size from 16-300 torches coming from all directions. Some events require us to use torchlight to spotlight Chinese cultural performances. Sometimes we aren't using torches at all, but one things for sure Special Ops makes each event unique. Being a Special Ops volunteer helps us ensure these go off without a hitch.

Interested in hanging out among the stars? Sign up here: Starry Starry Night

Visitors to WaterFire can "wish upon a star" of their own at this magical installation in Memorial Park, where large blue paper star lanterns are nestled in the treetops of this dark and dreamy grove. There is generally a proposal or two that happen here! Volunteers are needed to help welcome visitors, assist in hanging stars, and placing Luminaria lanterns where they are needed. This is a quiet, yet busy location; volunteers can expect frequent interactions with visitors...

WaterFire Volunteer Attire:

Suggestion: No large personal items and weather-appropriate clothing.

We ask that you please bring a reusable water bottle to your shift, and you will be able to refill on site.

"Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not get bent out of shape"

You'll get a message from us on Wednesday before the event letting you know where you'll be and what to expect!!

Get on a Boat during a WaterFire lighting and be a part of the art! You will receive a safety speech from the Captain/First Mate/ to start. From there, you are a part of the lighting procession. Every 20-ish minutes, you will ceremonially place logs onto braziers to rekindle fires, reload firewood into the boat, and work with fellow crew members to uphold the artistic integrity of the installation. This is a performance, symbolizing the effect and influence of a community when individuals work together.

NOTE: You will be very close to the fires to gently place the logs into the brazier so they continue to burn throughout the evening.

As a part of our mission to build community and increase book access, we’ve begun connecting stewards with their local booksellers through the LFL-Friendly Bookseller’s Directory. A crucial piece of this project is to reach out and ask booksellers to offer benefits to stewards, such as discounts, book donations, or event space discounts for meetups. We need your help to share information with booksellers about how they can support their local LFL stewards!

How to get started: Sign up on our website. If it's your first time volunteering with Team LFL, you will be asked to create an account in our volunteer hub. After you register, you will be instructed to compile a list of local booksellers you’d like to visit and submit it to us. After we receive your list, we will send you a packet of materials to distribute while you’re visiting the booksellers . 

Purpose: By helping connect Little Free Library stewards to local booksellers, you are helping to build community, inspire readers, and expand book access. 

Responsibilities:

Visit local booksellers (5 minimum, but can visit as many as you'd like) to drop off information packet on the bookseller’s directory

Be polite and courteous when visiting the bookseller - wait in line to speak to a staff member, don’t be pushy, encourage them to review the information and contact LFL with any questions.

Create a list of local booksellers that you plan to visit. 

Check the existing map to see which booksellers are already listed - you don’t need to go to any that are already listed!

Use booksellers’ associations (MIBA, CALIBA, etc.) to find booksellers near you (if you don’t already know them!)

Visit bookstores, use the provided Excel template to record who you’ve visited, and submit sheet to us via Givepulse.

As an incentive for completing this volunteer opportunity, you will be entered in a giveaway to receive a $50 gift card to the local bookseller of your choice.

Record your impact using Givepulse.

Time Required: A typical visit to a bookseller lasts about five to ten minutes, plus travel to and from, as well as time spent beforehand to research local booksellers. 

Training & Resources Available: We will help you get to know our organization and share tips to find local booksellers near you. 

Qualifications:

Be part of PSU's next big event– The Art of Student Power: Telling Our Story– at Hope Events on Main on Friday, May 1 from 5:30 - 8:30 pm! Help us make it a memorable evening dedicated to the voices that shape our future. We’re focused on youth leaders' stories and making space for collective visioning and community connection.
