Day 3 – Ghost Ship Workshop

I had an hour and a half break that I spent with Beth from Magic Makeover and Talina who was also volunteering that day.

After my break I went to the info booth to get new sheets for the clipboard and information on the Ghost Ship Workshop.

At the Ghost Ship Workshop I was again doing clipboard work in which I would take the tickets, give the children name tags, get parents to sign a form if they were leaving them and usher the kids inside to see the interactive show.

Once inside I would tally the children participating and adults observing, and at the end help take the ship ‘onto the seas’.

Due to the weather there were not many children, the show could take up to 25 but there were only 8. After that show there were no kids left for the rest of the afternoon’s shows. I had to find Anne-Louise and she came over to the tent and had a mini meeting with the two ladies doing the show and myself. She made an executive decision to cancel the rest of the afternoon’s shows and gave the one family who had bought a ticket, free entry into one of the afternoons shows in the theatre.

At the end of the day, I took the clipboard back to the info booth and thanked them for letting me volunteer.

I got to keep the ‘Season 2011’ Merrigong shirt and lanyard.
