Volunteers for Green peace bars in the past. 

 

Thank you - I didn't think they were on the spreadsheet but they are 🙂

Has anyone heard anything about Avalon bars crew? The website is still all 2024 information.

 

 

Hey I’m also checking regularly… no news that I’m aware of. Hope there’s some Avalon info soon 🤞

And me.

 

I’m actually expecting Feb, but they need time for returners, then lotto for new places if they do that again. All will be fine.

Avalon people… 

not sure if this was mentioned here before but looks like they’ll be using this new software this year

Thanks 👍

I think that’s the platform we used in ‘24 too. Still expecting old skool email to get us going for ‘25.

PAAM is fine, does approximately what it needs to do without falling over. Loads of organisations use it. MyCause, Hotbox, DCSS, and others.

Always looking for new orgs but I'm pretty sure I've got pretty much all of them covered on there, bar the car parking one the festival lists because they look like such a poor deal compared to others.

Tracsis/CTM? Yeah wouldn't fancy that.

 

Oasis Carnival Club are also missing, presumably for the same reason. Absolutely shocking T&Cs.

I think they'll probably stick with the custom build that they have to be honest.

Oasis was the main one I was thinking about yeah.

This from the website is the first red flag "DO NOT TELEPHONE ANY OF THE LISTED NUMBERS AS WE DO NOT ACCEPT ANY APPLICATIONS IN THIS WAY, ANYONE TELEPHONING TO APPLY WILL BE IMMEDIATELY BARRED FROM WORKING FOR US"

Yep, it's starting 🤩

Our crew lead just got the nod from GFEL this week about the first team meeting this month! Looks like we are back on for this year - was a bit nervous as we were a new crew last year.
