Volunteer Coordinator:
A most important job at the Hog, this volunteer maintains a list of those who volunteer during concerts at the Hog and schedules those volunteers on a rotating basis that meets their needs and those of the Hog. Its a great way to get to know other Hog members. A telephone and online access to email is required.
Web Site Content Editor:
Our long time founder and editor of the Hog's web site has retired from this position. Thanks to Ron McCabe for all his work over the years to create and host this web site. He leaves some big shoes to fill, so if you know HTML and have some time to contribute, we need someone to update all the links to other great folkie web sites. After that, you will continue to monitor content, soliciting updates and new content from folkies and maintain the the online calendar, which includes coordinating with blurb writers, the newsletter editor and contacts at certain other organizations, such as MadFolk.
This position does not include press releases and and other public announcement channels. Knowledge of and access to Adobe Dreamweaver is desirable as the web site is designed using this application, but not required.
Concert Coordinators:
The Hog needs a couple of new Concert Coordinators. Coordinators take turns being the host at our Friday evening concerts at the Coffeehouse. A Coordinator arrives at the Wil-Mar about 6:30pm and coordinates with volunteer workers to prepare the space for the evening. He or she acts as host to the guests and performers, and makes sure announcements get made. The coordinator set up the sound system and sometimes operates it. He or she counts the admissions and food boxes at the end of the evning and assist the volunteers in putting everything away properly. Knowledge of the sound system is helpful and existing coordinators can train you.
Concert Workers:
The Hog needs a few more people on the list to work at the Coffeehouse during Friday evening concerts. You can run the admission table and the refreshment table. You are the one to greet people when they arrive and answer questions they may have about the Hog. It's a fun and rewarding experience, and you get to hear some great music, too.

There are many people behind the scenes and up front of house, too. If you have talents that don't match with our positions listed here, visit our Contact Page to see what other positions there are. You can always volunteer to help someone else already doing a job.
