• You’ll be given a volunteer T-shirt to wear for your shift. You must wear the shirt for the whole shift.
• Shorts are perfectly acceptable.
• We suggest wearing comfortable shoes as you will be on your feet most of the time.
• You may want to bring a light jacket, as the evenings can sometimes be chilly.
CROWD CONTROL
We are fortunate that there are very few security issues with this event. If you have any concerns, notify the lead
volunteers in your area, our security team, or Folsom PD. The Folsom Police Department has officers on duty each
night at the rodeo and they are well equipped to handle any issues.
VOLUNTEER ASSIGNMENTS
BEVERAGE BOOTH TEAM MEMBERS
• The beverage booths will sell beer, canned cocktails, wine, soft drinks, and water.
• Prices will be posted at all bars.
• Our permit to sell alcohol has some restrictions and we ask that you use your good common sense in
working in the booth.
o If the person attempting to purchase the beer looks under thirty, ask for some identification.
Acceptable identification is a valid driver’s license or other identification issued by the Department
of Motor Vehicles.
o If a person cannot produce an acceptable ID, DO NOT sell alcohol to them.
o 21+ wristbands will be available at each beverage booth and at the front gates.
o You cannot sell an individual more than two beers at a time.
This means that an individual purchaser cannot carry more than two beers away from the booth at any
one time. However, the purchaser can pay for as many as he or she wants and hand them to other
adults accompanying them – if they are over 21.
o Our license also states that: Volunteers are prohibited from consuming alcoholic beverages
while working. Please do not jeopardize our license.
Thanks for the help and enjoy yourselves!
