June 17, 2024 • BitF 2024, Old News, Volunteer

Be like Hal! Volunteer with DPW Build team!

DPW is short for “Department of Public Works,” named after a similar crew at Burning Man. Can you wield a shovel? Drive a big truck? Do you like to get your hands dirty and build things? Do you know your way around solar/electrical? Can you tie a knot? Can you lift things up and move things over to somewhere else? Are you eager to pitch in and do what needs to be done to make the event a success, even if you’ve never done it before?
At DPW, we build and tear down infrastructure for the event. We need a crew of hardy souls who want to arrive early or stay late and help us build BitF! DPW can be a good workout at times, so bring your muscles, but there is work for all types of people.
All DPW hours worked are worth two for calculating volunteer hours for tickets for next year’s BitF (i.e. 1 hour on-site = 2 hours banked).

Find out more at the BitF 2024 ParticiPARTY next Sunday, June 23rd @ 2 PM, and sign up to do your part at https://whatif.now/participate/volunteering/!
