MRC volunteers are needed to staff the lost person and safety wristband booths at the Evergreen State Fair in Monroe.
As part of a disaster response effort, MRC volunteers may be stationed at an assistance/reunification center. This community outreach opportunity serves as a real-world exercise in reunification which volunteers could be asked to do a part of a response effort. This year we will be working with CERT teams from around Snohomish County to staff the booths and get to know one another.
What You’ll Do:
- Assist fairgoers by taking reports of lost persons.
- Coordinate with the Snohomish County Sheriff's Office and Fair Security to help reunite families and groups.
- Distribute free safety ID wristbands and educate the public on their use — helping attendees write a contact name and phone number on each wristband to minimize separation time.
- Provide reassurance and support during moments of stress or confusion.
Why Volunteer?
- Gain valuable experience in emergency communication and public safety procedures.
- Make a meaningful impact on the well-being of your community.
- Enjoy the fair! Volunteers receive a free fair entrance ticket and parking pass for each day you volunteer — explore the Evergreen State Fair before or after your shift!
