Event Volunteers

Become a Shelburne Event Ambassador!

Make an impact. Bring people together. Help create unforgettable community moments.

The Town of Shelburne is looking for enthusiastic community members to join our Event Ambassador Volunteer Team. Our volunteers play a vital role in making local events welcoming, inclusive, and fun for everyone.

Whether you love helping behind the scenes or being right in the action with families and attendees, there’s a place for you on the team!

Event Ambassadors help with a variety of tasks depending on the event, including:

• Encouraging participation in activities and photo opportunities
• Surveying attendees

Event Support

• Helping manage line-ups
• Supporting small contests, raffles, or giveaways
• Assisting with volunteer-only info stations or hydration tents

No prior experience is needed—just a positive attitude and willingness to help.
