Volunteers ensure the event runs smoothly in a timely manner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe success of GLOW With Your Hands would not be possible without the help and hard work of our volunteers,\u201d said GLOW Workforce Development Board Executive Director, Jay Lazarony. \u201cVolunteers make the student experience worthwhile, educational, and enjoyable! There are many moving parts to the event, the more people helping us out, the better this day will be for our future generation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Annually, the event averages roughly 100 volunteers, with 50 \u2013 75 individuals working directly with the students. Some volunteers will be paired with students individually for assistance. There are several vendors that rely on volunteers to facilitate a positive learning environment to make sure students are having fun and staying safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cVolunteers play an important role to encourage students to participate in hands-on career demonstrations and ask employers questions that can help them understand job opportunities in their own backyard,\u201d said GLOW With Your Hands Volunteer Committee leader Karyn Winters. \u201cWe are a volunteer-based event, the people involved are invested in the future of GLOW region students and want them to take advantage of this opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Volunteers must be at least 18 years or older.
