  • Foster an inclusive environment: Help create a welcoming, respectful, and inclusive atmosphere where everyone feels valued and supported.
  • Deliver excellent customer service: Serve as a friendly, knowledgeable point of contact for all participants, volunteers, vendors, and water partners; respond to questions and resolve on-site issues or escalate concerns to staff.
  • Prioritize safety: Uphold safety best practices during event preparation, setup, and execution.
