As a volunteer, we depend on you to complete your scheduled shifts. We understand that occasionally situations may prevent you from being able to do so. If you know that you will not be able to make a shift for an event more than 24 hours before the shift, please contact the Event Main Point of Contact (from the Event Overview Email from Step 8) or the Volunteer Coordinator (volunteer-coordinator@seattlemathmuseum.org), to notify them of your absence. If you find that you are unable to attend on the day of your shift, please contact the Event Main Point of Contact and let them know that you are unable to come in.
9. You will receive an email from our Education Team or Event Point Person about 1-2 weeks in advance, leading up to your opportunity with more information, including meeting time, meeting location, parking information (if applicable), event point of contact information, etc.
