In an effort to consolidate CYC Volunteer opportunities in one easy to access place on your mobile device, we want to try Volunteer Scheduler Pro (VSP) this summer. Please see the helpful tips below: |
| The first step is to set up an account by enrolling to volunteer HERE. You will need to create a NEW username and password (the system is not pre populated with your CYC wild apricot username and password since only you know your password). As part of the sign up process, you should select which activities you would like to volunteer for. Some individuals only volunteer for Race Patrol, while others volunteer for all the options. The next step, if you choose to access the sign up on your mobile device, is to download the app on the app store. From there, you will need to select CYC in Chatham, MA. To volunteer, select any open position you wish and click “volunteer now.” Please note you can sign up on the app or on the website. https://www.rotundasoftware.com/volunteer/cyc

A quick tutorial on Volunteer Scheduler Pro is also available HERE If you have completed your sign up and realize there is something you didn’t select to volunteer for, please let us know and we can easily update your profile. If you are having any issues, please text or call Alicia Downs at 917-623-3819/email awdd@downsfive.com or Sarah Lipson at 646-283-4209/email sarahmlipson@gmail.com. Text will get the quickest response. We are also happy to sign you up for any shifts manually and you will receive the reminders. Please share your feedback and ways we can improve your volunteer experience.
WHERE WE NEED YOUR HELP: Parent on Duty: Please sign up for at least one shift per child in sailing school over the summer. You will help with tasks around the clubhouse (organization and sanitation requests are outlined in a document on the CYC pinboard). Once complete, you are welcome to watch your sailor in action, read a book etc until pick up. Race Days: Please sign up for at least two Race Day volunteer slots. Race Day volunteer needs include:
Regatta: Please sign up for at least one Regatta donation/volunteer opportunity. CYC hosts one of the only free regattas on the Cape. In order to keep within budget, we rely on members contributing in some way. There are many small needs for the regatta including cases of bottled water, granola bars, watermelons, donuts, bagels, coffee etc as well as some bigger needs such as the traditional cake with the CYC Logo. Social: Please sign up for at least one social volunteer slot. CYC has many fun events over the course of the summer and volunteers are needed to help organize, set up, provide supplies and clean up. Events include the 4th of July Parade, the Strawberry Social, Commodore’s Cocktails, the Regatta Dinner and the Last Hurrah Cocktail Party.

| The Volunteer Season needs are below: CYC relies on all members to volunteer to maintain our community culture, keep costs affordable and our children safe. We ask that each family sign up for at least one Parent On Duty shift per child, at least one Regatta slot, at least two Race Day slots and at least one Social Volunteer slot. The more you can do to help, the more fun. This year we will be utilizing Volunteer Scheduler Pro, which allows for volunteers to easily sign up, find substitutes and receive reminders.
