Volunteer Sign Up – please read!
Please sign up for a shift below. Only one member of your team needs to sign up, the other member will be automatically added. You can go out any day within the week you signed up for.
Please note that we hope to have at least one team to go out each week to have consistent data collection, however, having more data is a positive situation so we are open to having multiple teams go out in the same week as long as they don’t go out on the same day. If two teams do sign up for the same week we will be in touch to help coordinate.
