Am I guaranteed to get the shifts I want?

The shifts you choose will be scheduled at the time you contact us, and most likely will not change. However, please be aware that some shifts may need to be rearranged as we get closer to the event. If we need to modify your schedule in ANY way we will notify you via email.

I NEED to see my favorite band!

The band line up will be posted on the festival website. Remember, you are scheduling yourself, so please keep the lineup in mind when picking your schedules.

What if something has come up and I need to cancel my shift?

We understand that unexpected emergencies come up, but please let us know as soon as possible. Please contact one of us listed above. If you cancel the day before or the weekend of the festival you may not be asked to volunteer next year, depending upon your circumstances. We depend greatly on our volunteers and could not have this festival without them, and late cancellations put a great strain on coordinators and other volunteers to cover holes in schedules.

Can I work with my friends?

It is solely up to you and your friends to schedule your shifts together. All available shifts appear on the sign up page, and some areas fill up quicker than others. If you want to work with friends, we advise that you sign up at the same time. 

What do I do if I already bought my festival ticket?

Please email Sarah@clearcreekrapidgrass.com to explain your situation and request a refund. Refunds are granted at the sole discretion the festival organizers and are not guaranteed. You are always welcome to try and resell your festival pass online or to friends or family that may wish to attend. HINT: They also make GREAT gifts!

What do I do if I cannot make the volunteer meeting?

A volunteers’ meeting will be held on Thursday July 11th at 7 PM, (location to be determined), for all volunteers. This is a chance to meet the coordinators, get a feel for the position you will be working, pick up your volunteer t-shirt and just mingle with other volunteers. Food (probably pizza) and drinks will be provided.  If you cannot make it, please plan to show up to the Volunteer Check-In booth 20 minutes before your assigned shift to receive instructions and have a chance to change into your volunteer t-shirt. However, this meeting is very important to the success of the festival and you should try to make it if at all possible.
