Empty Bowls 2024 Volunteer Registration signup sheet

THANK YOU for volunteering! Carrollton/Carroll County Empty Bowls is a long-standing and successful tradition. In fact, this year is the 20th Anniversary of Empty Bowls in our community, and we will be celebrating. Join us for this special event.

Date: Sunday, February 25, 2024, 11:00 AM - 2:30 PM
Location: Carroll County Agriculture-Education Center, 900 Newnan Road, Carrollton

This year Empty Bowls will again be an in-person event, and we are so excited to be able to do this again. We will provide hand sanitizer, and please take any precautions you feel are needed to keep yourselves and others healthy.

We are using the same online registration system that we have used successfully in past years, and we hope it will continue to be an easy process for you to sign up for a position. Please let us know if you have any problems or questions. There are two shifts (usually 10:30 - 12:30 and 12:30 - 2:30) for most positions so our volunteers will be able to enjoy the event as well as work a shift. The early shift may help with last minute set up, and the later shift may assist with clean up.

In addition to asking for volunteers on Sunday, we also need help on Saturday, February 24 at 2:00 PM setting up the venue and picking up soup that has been donated by restaurants and individuals and delivering it to the Carroll County Ag Center.

Please read the information below before signing up.

***SET UP of venue (Carroll County Ag Center, 900 Newnan Road, Carrollton, GA) is Saturday afternoon, February 24, 2024, 2:00 p.m..
One component of Saturday's Set Up is picking up soup from our donors at an agreed upon time and taking it to the Ag Center, which will be open for a few hours beginning at 2:00 p.m.. This also may require returning the empty pots to the donor if they did not provide disposable ones.

***OUR EMPTY BOWLS EVENT is Sunday, February 25, 2024 from 11:00 - 2:30. EMPTY BOWLS CLEAN UP is the same day from 2:30 until finished.

***This year our volunteers will enter the building through the rear entrance (where the musicians enter and set up) in order to minimize congestion in the front.

"I WILL DO ANYTHING; PUT ME WHERE I AM NEEDED" choice. First shift is usually 10-12 or 10:30 -12:30. Second shift is usually 12-2 or 12:30-2:30.

If your first choice of a volunteer position is already full, please register for another. OR, sign up in the "I will do anything; put me where I am needed" slots. It sometimes happens that people volunteer for a position and then find that they are unable to work. In that instance positions open up, and those positions will be filled from the "I will do anything" registrants. It is sometimes possible to be put to work at the event if a volunteer has a last minute conflict and is unable to be present.

PLEASE NOTE: This registration system is for individuals only. If you are a member of a group that would like to register multiple people to work, please contact me directly at ebcgavolunteers@gmail.com. Or, individual members may use this online registration form.

If you have questions, please contact me at ebcgavolunteers@gmail.com. Thank you!
