What to expect
- How can my ministry or connect group get involved?
- We love this question! You can pick a booth or day, then email Sydney at events@stjohnparish.org so she can reserve slots for your ministry. Examples of other ministries who lead a booth are Knights of Columbus with the Elephant Ears, Men's Club owns the Corn Booth, Connect Group #1 The OG's at the SJE Grill, & the Franciscans cover the Pizza Booth.
- Do I have to be a parish partner to sign up?
- Nope, only the beer tent & gaming booths require you be a registered parishioner. We have plenty of local businesses that like volunteer together for team bonding.
- What are the rules for school family hours?
- Maximum of hours is 10 per school family (mom/dad/grandparents can do them). Chairpersons can earn 13hours & Core Team members 18hours (Reach out to Sydney at events@stjohnparish.org if your interested in chair/core).
- Where can we park?
- Volunteers may park in the grass lot off Kielman by the MEC for the duration of their volunteer shift.
- What should I wear?
- If you have any SJE parish, SJE school, or SJE ministry apparel rock it! Otherwise summer modest as your representing the parish.
- Who should I email if I am having trouble?
- If our new site or your account is giving you issues, please contact Chris at crispy@crispysoftwaresolutions.com .
