OTR
would not exist without all of the dedicated volunteers that
commit their time throughout the year to making OTR a
success. This page contains information about what is
taking place to maintain the OTR grounds. Much
of this will take place before anyone arrives for the Old
Timers weekend. This is when the real party takes
place. Select one of the items to the right for more
information about a specific group that you might be
interested, or to have someone contact you about registering
as a volunteer.
If you would
like to sign up to volunteer, please contact the
appropriate person directly (see below).
Note: To be
allowed on the TRA/OTR property before the official opening
of OTR, you must be on one of these people's list.
There is plenty to do the week before OTR officially opens,
and if you are there you will be expected to work.
TRA Work
Weekends
The TRA work
weekends are a special time for volunteers to come out to
the campground and help out with some of the more time
demanding tasks. It's a good time to enjoy the campground
without its 2000+ OTR attendees, and it's still a good time
to socialize. See the calendar
for the dates of this year's work weekends: For more
information and directions contact
Kelley
Deem.
OTR
Registration
What better way to help out
at OTR than to sign up for Registration. The dedicated
volunteers at the registration pavilion enjoy a relaxed
atmosphere where they get to see absolutely everyone that
arrives at the reunion. With over 2000 people arriving
for the weekend, registration will be center stage for the
first few days. Contact
Tim Brown at the registration pavilion if you have an hour or
two to spare.
Security
In any gathering
with over 2,000 people there will be occasions where some
form of assistance will be required. Especially with a
reunion of cavers, and the variety of activities that
surrounds the caving community. We are a self policing
organization, and this is why we have a volunteer security
staff of cavers to help. If you would like to assist
in this group, we could really use your help for just about
any time of the day. Contact the chief of security, Lizette
Molina Deem, either by asking anyone wearing a security
hat, or check with the security hut at the corner of the
main campground road and vendors row.
Sauna
The SAUNA is
always a point of interest at OTR. Partly because of
it's unique nature, the fact that you will not find an area
quite like it anywhere in the world, and because of the
dedication of it's volunteers. These volunteers work
very hard maintaining and expanding the sauna site all year
long. In the last few years the sauna area has grown
from a secluded meeting place to almost a town in
itself. There are more structures than ever before, a
volleyball court, a stage, and general area for socializing.
It's one of the "you have to see it to believe
it". Paul
Drennan is always looking for volunteers to help both
during OTR, and for work weekends throughout the year.
Contact Paul during OTR at the sauna area.
