Our booth is comfortable and stays cool and shady in the heat. The dogs just lie around on beds and look elegant and gorgeous. We humans enjoy the atmosphere and the company. There is no admissions charge for a volunteer accompanied by a greyhound, and you are welcome to park in the 'employees' parking area, which cuts down considerably on the walk to your car. It is not difficult to leave the booth for a break, see some of the faire, get some food - leaving your dog behind in good hands. You are not alone at the booth - several volunteers are scheduled in a slot. You will be sitting, and talking to visitors about the greys, about adopting and about fostering. It's easy and fun!
If you have never experienced the Faire, this is a good way to see it cheaply! Volunteers are expected to dress in the Renaissance spirit - for advice contact Julie and Susie, and please be aware that there is on-site costume rental that is very inexpensive, and an ideal solution if you are nervous about the idea of dressing - they will do it for you. Also, Kevin and CGA keep a number of great costumes, contact Kevin for information on those.
Please consider signing up for a Saturday or Sunday shift! We do ask that you sign up ahead of time. Bring your grey(s) and/or a foster! Contact Kevin to sign up. See more info for volunteers at http://www.scrye.com/~kevin/faire-faqs.html
The Faire will continue every weekend through August 4. For more on the Colorado Renaissance Festival - http://www.coloradorenaissance.com/
