Volunteer Duties include:

• Cashiers (12) to sell beer, wine or soda products. Each cashier must check that the person buying an alcoholic beverage has a wristband which indicates that they are of legal age to consume alcohol.
• Volunteers (8-10) to pour beer and wine products. (10) for July and August.
• Volunteers (2) to assist with ID checks and wrist-banding.
• Customer Service is paramount. Volunteers must be committed to providing quick and friendly service to the attendees each week.

Downtown Boise Association will provide the following:

• Tips collected during Wednesday's events will be collected, counted by the DBA and a check provided to non-profit organization the first week of the following month.
• DBA will provide a Booth Space at the event each week to the non-profit organization should the option be taken.
