What is the minimum age for participants?
We prefer all volunteers to be 18. However, volunteers can be 16 or 17 with parental consent. All groups must also maintain an adult chaperon:minor ratio of 1:3.
What if our group has a change in our participation numbers?
Please notify us immediately with any changes to your participation numbers. This will allow our office to re-allocate our staff in order to account for any shortages or increases. If you bring less than your commitment, your donation will be decreased to reflect your actual attendance.
How long are the event days?
While this number is subject to change for each day and event, group members should plan to volunteer no less than 8-10 hours, 12-13 hours on Indy 500 Race Day, depending on the area they are assigned.
What if our group members can only volunteer a portion of the assigned day?
Group members should only sign up to volunteer if they are available for the entire shift. This helps with consistency and prevents areas from becoming short staffed throughout the day.
When can our group expect to receive the donation?
All groups are required to check-in and check-out for their shift. You can expect to receive the donation check in the mail 3-4 weeks after the event. Once the donation check is received, it must be cashed within 90 days of receipt.
