Volunteer Info 

Volunteers get to shop both the regular and half-price pre-sales!
At the regular pre-sale on Friday evening, volunteers shop before the sellers. The half-price pre-sale on Saturday evening is for volunteers ONLY.

ANYONE can sign up to be a volunteer -- you do not have to be a seller to help out at the sale.  
Volunteers sign up for one or more 3-hour shifts on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or Monday
​of the sale weekend (28 March - 1 April 2019).

  • Volunteers who volunteer on Thursday or Friday prior to the pre-sale receive their tickets when they come for their shift.
  • If you are not a seller and your shift is on Saturday or Sunday, arrive at the pre-sale 10 minutes early to get your tickets to the pre-sale.

On The Day of Your Shift:
  • Wear comfortable clothes and shoes
  • Bring a snack and drink.
  • Arrive 15 minutes prior to your shift so you can put away your things and find out what you need to do.
  • Make sure you sign yourself in and out to receive credit for your shift(s). 

Volunteers are essential for the success of the sale.  We count on our volunteers to show up for their shifts.  If you do not show up, you will not be allowed to volunteer at future sales.
