With SoccerFest hosting a record number of teams, it has been the Volunteer
Management Department’s challenge to raise enough volunteers to be able to host
the event.  Corey Biechele, Dan Faggella and Anthony Tynan have been hard at
work to recruit and train volunteers to assist each SoccerFest department.
This includes referees, field monitors, staffing the Fun Zone, help with
registration, set-up and tear-down crews, and any other jobs that need to get
done.

Volunteer Management also hosted a party at The Hatch in the Campus Center this
past Monday to get all volunteers excited for SoccerFest.  First, we unveiled
our raffle prize for anyone who visits SoccerFest – Rock Band!  Then, after
raffling off some other prizes, we had pizza, drinks and pool.

With our big day coming tomorrow, Volunteer Management is ready to help Tournament
Operations set up our site and make final adjustments and preparation
to be ready to go Saturday morning.  Feel free to stop by and say hi and don’t
forget to thank the volunteers you see!  We couldn’t put on this event without
a real team effort.  Good luck to all teams and we will see you on Saturday!
