Freiwilliger

Volunteer at the Inaugural PHS VEX V5 Event!

Our event runs on volunteers, and we can't do it without you. Whether you're a parent, student, teacher, engineer, or just curious about robotics, there's a role for you. No experience is needed for most positions, and training will be provided the morning of the event.

Volunteer Check-in: 7am at PHS Front office
Volunteer Briefing: 7:15
Event Ends: approximately 7pm

All volunteers will receive lunch, snacks and drinks throughout the day, and [a volunteer t-shirt / other thank-you]. Students can earn community service hours; we're happy to sign off on hour forms.

Check-in Table: Welcome teams, check them in, hand out pit assignments, and collect engineering notebooks.

Robot Inspector: Check robots for size and parts compliance before matches begin. Familiarity with the V5 game manual is a plus.
