Help Us Out and Get Free Stuff!
     Picture this: It is 4pm Friday afternoon at the Albuquerque Academy and as
the student body dissipates like the fog under a bright sun, Solar enthusiasts
from all parts of the state magically appear and a riot of activity initiates the
beginning of NMSEA’s largest educational event of the year, the Solar Fiesta!
Put up the tents! Quick, set that barrier in place! Where does this sign go?
No, don’t drive on the lawn! You don’t see engineers or secretaries, teachers
or webmasters… you see VOLUNTEERS!
     The NMSEA Volunteers are the heart and soul of who we are. These great
people will gather to set up, run and tear down the Fiesta. We need a lot of
them to get this show on the road – Can you help?
People who give us at least four hours of their time will receive a free 2011
Solar Fiesta T-shirt and free parking for the event. Volunteers need to sign up
in advance and can let us know in what capacity they can help.
Some of the areas needing help include:

• Set up on Friday evening 4pm – 8pm (includes free dinner)
• Set up on Saturday morning 8am to 10am
• Take down on Sunday afternoon beginning 4pm to 8pm.
• Helping to count heads and direct parking.
• Monitor the classrooms
• Ticketing and Information Booths
• General Gophers.
