Hey Guys this is an update on my steps to volunteer at 2012,
I am over the moon to tell you all that the other week I received a letter congratulating me on getting through the selection process and being accepted as a Games Maker for 2012.
At the interview they asked lots of questions about what I had done to help others and volunteering I had done before. You dont realize how volunteering with different projects over time can all mount up when someone is writing it down. Im sure its helped me to be accepted on the team. A big thank you goes out to the volunteers coordinator at Edge Hill as without her posting it on her Facebook group i don’t think i would have noticed it.
The team I have been selected to help with is the Technology team. Kind of good considering I am doing a computing course. I will be helping at the BMX and Basket Ball. at the Velodrome.
My roles will include:
- Helping the Venue Technology Manager coordinate the implementation and operation of technology services at the venue
- Coordinating technology tours of the venue for interested parties such as partners, the Olympic/Paralympic Family and future Host Cities.
- Carrying out administrative tasks and simple installations.
