Get the most out of your conference experience by getting involved with NCURA! The outstanding sessions being planned and presented are complimented by a host of volunteer opportunities. These opportunities allow you to engage with NCURA colleagues and start some new, mutually beneficial connections!
Welcome Call to First Time Attendees - Have you attended the PRA Conference? We need you! We would like to have 30 volunteers to each call and welcome 10 new members/first time attendees of the 2018 PRA Conference! This Volunteer opportunity is for those individuals who have attended the FRA or PRA Conference previously. What does this entail? Calling 10 new members/first time attendees between February 12 - March 2 to help answer their questions and share your knowledge of the conference, along with a follow-up call after the conference to check in about their experience.
Host City Welcome Committee- NCURA is calling on local members from Orlando to join NCURA’s Host City Welcome Committee. We have put together some great volunteer opportunities for you to showcase your home city while getting to know your fellow NCURA colleagues. Activities range from providing information about Orlando at the Conference Welcome Booth to guiding walking tours of the city, recommending restaurants and must-see hot spots to leading colleagues on a morning fun run to get their hearts pumping.
Fitness Track- Help fellow participants stay active during PRA. Lead fitness activities, such as the Fun Run, Power Walk, Boot Camp, Zumba or Yoga!
Express Registration- Make participants feel welcome during PRA’s Express Registration. Hand out conference packets and assist participants with their badges, all while getting to know your NCURA colleagues.
May I Help You Find Your Meeting Room?- Meet fellow participants by helping them navigate their way through the conference. Help NCURA help others find their way by directing participants to their proper session room. You will be equipped with a hotel map and a “May I Help You Find Your Meeting Room” sign.
NCURA Cares- The NCURA Cares Shower Outreach program helps local shelters by creating hygiene kits for the homeless. By donating one night's worth of hotel shower toiletries, participants help provide warm, clean showers for those in need. NCURA Volunteers will collect these hygiene kits throughout the conference and bring them to a local Orlando shelter at the end of the conference. Volunteer to provide assistance with donation collections and show how NCURA Cares!
Dinner Groups - Continue conversations and make new connections while enjoying a meal with your colleagues. Volunteer to lead a dinner group to a local Orlando restaurant. NCURA staff will provide sign-up sheets and restaurant information.
