Call for volunteers:

Volunteers make all this possible.  Join the crew!

The Playford Ball is truly a community event.  What makes it work is the time, energy, and efforts donated by the members of our community who help create the Ball each year.  You, too, can be part of the magic of the Playford Ball.  We welcome all volunteers and have many different kinds of tasks with which anyone can help.  Some tasks occur before the Ball; others the day of, during, or after the Ball.  Here are just a few of the them:

  • Art
    • Name tag assembly
    • Food label tag assembly
    • Art party volunteer  - we use art parties to get together and make decorations and all kinds of fun stuff
  • Food
    • Food preparation on the day of the Ball
    • Treat-making in advance (baking cookies, &c)
    • Food contributions (we give you the recipes if you give us the goodies)
  • Miscellaneous-but-Much-Appreciated
    • Door and Welcome greeters (a perfect opportunity to warm up your charm)
    • Servers of punch and other delicacies during breaks
    • Decorations setup on the day of the Ball
    • The All Important Hall cleanup
    • Transporting  food or other items to the After-party or Brunch
    • Providing hospitality to out-of-town guests
    • Participating in the Playford "Road Show" at various dances (we talk about the ball and showcase Ball-appropriate sartorial splendor)
    • Assisting with the workshops or Rehearsal dance

Why not contact us to see what might be right for you?   You'll earn our undying gratitude and have fun besides!


Sudden Hospitality

Bay Area folks:  Want a way to make new friends and add to your Playford experience?  Our out-of-town guests always need and appreciate hospitality.  This can consist of providing rides to or from the airport or train station, providing lodging for an out-of-towner, or just helping folks find their way around town.  If you didn't already mark this on your registration form you can still contact us.
