About Brewers’ PicNyc - the ULTIMATE city picnic!
Brewers' PicNyc is not a garden, but is helping to support the local food movement that Get Dirty NYC! feels very passionate about. Plus, we want to help our friend Jimmy of Jimmy's 43 find volunteers for this great event!
Here are the details:
When: Sunday May 29th and Monday May 30th
Where: Governors Island’s historic Colonel’s Row
Shifts: 9am - 2pm or 1pm - 6pm
We need lots of help to kick off summer with Brewers’ PicNyc over Memorial Day weekend on Governors Island. This is going to be a HUGE event focused on amazing food vendors and local craft beer along with ongoing entertainment and activities for families.
We’re looking for people to help out with greeting, ticket taking, some set up (hanging signs etc.) assisting chefs, assisting with crowd maintenance and lines and generally working to make the event run smoothly.
Volunteers should be 21+ and will receive limited edition t-shirts, admission to the event, and food and drink tickets.
Please contact Erin McMonagle at erin.a.mcmonagle@gmail.com with Brewers’ PicNyc Volunteer in the subject header, and stating what date and shift you would like to work.
