Provo City Halloween Carnival

The time is coming for this year's Halloween Carnival! The carnival brings all kinds of fun, imaginative, and immersive experiences to the Recreation Center: games, character meet-and-greet, "It"-themed haunted house, zombie laser tag, candy, magic shows, live animal shows, and much, much more. This is a free event for pre-registered members of the Provo Recreation Center ($5 for Adults and $4 for children for non Provo Recreation Center members) and experience different activities that Provo has to offer. As a volunteer, you will receive one free admission to participate in the carnival on the shift you are not volunteering. We are expecting around 3,000 people at this year's event.We are reaching out to you to come participate and volunteer in this fun event!

 

Date & Location: October 28 at the Provo Recreation Center 

 

Time: Volunteers will be needed from 4 pm to 11 pm. There will be two separate 4 hour shifts that cover these hours. The actual event is 5pm -10pm.

  

First Shift: 4 pm-7:45 pm, includes set-up and help with activities

Second Shift: 7:30 pm-11 pm, help with activities and take-down 

*Character Shifts: 4:30 pm-10:00 pm, these volunteers will be characters in our meet-and-greet or themed rooms. They will need to be present the entire carnival, but will have a break half-way through. 

 

Please plan on attending for your entire shift. On the shift that you are not volunteering for, you are welcome to roam and participate in the event. We also will plan on serving you dinner as a small thank you for helping us at this event.

 

What to expect: We are asking you to monitor and facilitate different activities throughout the carnival. This may include but is not limited to: helping participants with the games, leading participants through the themed classrooms, acting as a character and handing out candy in the "Trick-or-Treat Street", running the zombie laser tag, assisting with the haunted house, or helping with registration.

We would be grateful for your time to make Halloween Carnival the best that it can be! We can't run these event without the help of our amazing volunteers. We rely on you to help us make that personal contact with all of participants that is sometimes hard for us to do as we are running around throughout the event. It will be a great experience for all involved.
