MISS AMAZING WISCONSIN
Miss Amazing Wisconsin is offering a great opportunity for students (or adults) to volunteer on Saturday, March 11th, right here at Bay Port!
They have 50 participants registered and are in desperate need of female Buddies for the participants. An additional 40 female Buddies would help TREMENDOUSLY, and they also need about 30 male Right Hand Men!
● Female Buddies would be split into two categories and would need to arrive either at 9 am or 11am. Volunteers would register and get matched with a Buddy and do a simple training session. The main event takes place at 3pm, with crowning at 5pm. Female Buddy volunteers would be needed until the end of the crowning, which is about 6pm. Lunch will be provided.
● Crowning is where they need the Right Hand Men. They have the job of walking our participants on the stage. Right Hand Men would need to arrive around 4:30pm and would be needed until about 6pm. Right-Hand Men are asked to arrive in formal wear - as fancy as a suit, but a nice button down and formal pants is acceptable. They have 50 participants registered so far, and would prefer to match them up one to one. At minimum, a dozen Right Hand Men are needed.
If interested in helping as either female Buddy, a Right Hand Man, or a general volunteer, please use the link to sign up. https://missamazing.org/volunteer
