On The Fly depends on the time and talent of volunteers to bring this event to life.

All volunteer activities will take place at: 5627 Covered Bridge Ln., Spruce Creek PA 16883

Auction Volunteers

We will have a silent and live auction during the event. The auction(s) take place during the reception (4 – 7pm). Auction Volunteers will help monitor the silent auction and help keep track of bids during the live auction.

Break Down Volunteers

All break down volunteers will help to ensure we leave the space looking just as good as when we found it. These volunteers will help bag linens, break down tables and chairs, remove trash, pack the truck and more.

Controller

Controllers are the people on the water who are helping to net and measure any fish caught during the competition. We prefer individuals who are familiar with fly fishing.

Event Decorating

Between lunch and dinner, we will need to turn over the tent and be ready for the reception and dinner. As an Event Decorating volunteer you will help position tables in the right place, put linens and center pieces on the tables and help make sure the event is ready to greet the anglers when they conclude fishing at the end of the day.

General Volunteer

If you have no preference on where we place you, this is the volunteer position for you!

Raffle/Game Volunteer

As a raffle/game volunteer, you will help us run the different raffles and games that will happen during the reception.
