NEED TO KNOW!
Criteria for participating as a volunteer for the
Maui Film Festival at Wailea
DATES OF FESTIVAL: Wednesday, June 15th - Sunday, June 19th.
OFFICIAL PRE-FESTIVAL VOLUNTEER MEETING
Thursday, June 9th, 6:15pm - 7:15pm
To all Volunteer Candidates! There will be a volunteer orientation meeting on Thursday, June 9th at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center, Alexa Higashi Meeting Room, 6:15pm-7:15pm. Please arrive at 6.
The online registration and scheduling system empowers you to create and manage your own schedule. Experience doing a particular activity makes everything go smoother so "repeat" as possible.
DRESS CODE : As "Ambassadors of Aloha" we ask that you present yourself in the same professional manner you would any employer; clean clothes, attention to hygeine, and good walking shoes. Many jobs require being on your feet, walking up and down a fairly steep ramp and walking on grass. Please refrain from wearing slippers ("sandals" for you mainlanders) as they can severely limit your mobility and safety. The official uniform of the MFF@Wailea Volunteer is khaki (tan) or black shorts, pants or skirt and the official MFF T-Shirt you will receive when you check in for your first shift, in the size and gender you indicate when you register .
COMMITMENT: If you commit to a shift and accept tickets for events that occur before your shift, and then don't show up, you will be invoiced the cost of the tickets and inconvenience the other volunteers, because they'll have to make up for you. If you make a commitment, please honor it.
CONSIDERATION: Each 4 hour volunteer shift entitles you to two $10 movie tickets good at the festival (equivalent of one evening of Celestial Cinema for one person), plus, one $10 First Light Film Festival movie ticket.
VOLUNTEER PARKING: Parking for volunteers is at the Blue Course at the Wailea Golf Course. Head south past the resorts of Wailea. Turn left at the intersection immediately after you pass the Kealani - pull into first drive on right and right again into the parking lot. Arrive 10-15 minutes before you are scheduled to check in at the Volunteer desk at the Celestial Cinema (see map). Veteran volunteers will show you where to go once you get on the shuttle.
