Interested in Being a Volunteer at the 2023 Field of Honor®? We have numerous opportunities to volunteer throughout the week of the 2023 Field of Honor®! 

See below to learn about volunteer opportunities and to sign up for one or more shifts!

On Friday, November 3, beginning at 7:30 a.m., volunteers are invited to help set up flags at field behind the Hammerlun Center for Leadership and Learning, 507 E. University Ave in Georgetown. Park along the perimeter of the field on Ash St., 8th St., and Church St. Just show up! No advance sign-up needed.

 We will be setting up the 1,400 flags between 7:30 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. All are welcome to help or to just watch the field come to life. Just show up! Please note: As a safety precaution, children under 10 cannot be allowed on the field during this process due to exposed rebar. Once the flags are all posted, all are invited to help finish setting up the field.

Most volunteer opportunities during the Field of Honor® are in the Flag Sales Tent helping to process flag orders and reposts, assisting visitors in purchasing flags, challenge coins, caps, visors, and pins, creating dedication tags, or helping to inspect and prepare flags for reposting. These opportunities to serve are mostly seated and require basic computer skills. Customer service skills are a must for taking flag orders and swag sales.

Making dedication tags only requires basic typing/computer skills and the ability to use a laminator. We’ll show you how!  

All shifts are 3 hours each, typically 9-12, 12-3, and 3 to 6 except for Sunday 11/12 when there are two shifts, 9-12 and 12 – 3.

Docents and Greeters greet visitors, provide directions and event information, take people to their flag after purchasing it at the field, attach dedication tags to the poles, and take photos if requested. Docents also answer questions about the Field and assist visitors with flag location. In all cases, great people skills, the ability to be on your feet for most of the shift time, and basic computer skills are essential.

All shifts are 3 hours each, typically 9-12, 12-3, and 3 to 6 except for Sunday 11/12 when there are two shifts, 9-12 and 12 – 3.

Age requirements for youth will depend on the particular task. 

Your Help is Most Welcome and Greatly Appreciated!
