Be the friendly face and smile that welcomes visitors to the return of The Wagner Subaru Outdoor Experience! Ambassador Volunteers are stationed at the entrance to the event to welcome visitors, provide event information, distribute programs, and assist with activity waivers. As visitors leave, ambassadors thank them for coming and encourage them to come to other events.
Impact
These volunteers are the first event contact and make the experience seamless, welcoming, and fun for those participating. They create positive, high-energy, and outdoor enthusiasm at the start of the visitor experience. Volunteers will leave knowing they have promoted an active, healthy lifestyle in the region and have contributed to making Dayton “The Adventure Capital of the Midwest!”
