VOLUNTEER

Volunteer to Work a Booth
If you and your family enjoy the fun and fellowship that comes with this event, we ask that you please consider signing up to assist for a couple hours one night. We promise lots of fun and a chance to meet new St. Albert friends! (And it's no fun to have empty booths😔 ) Sign up below.
If you are a student (or parent of a student) needing service hours, please sign up using the designated slots—note that students under 18 cannot work at gambling booths, and help is also welcomed for non-game-related tasks.Â
Work a Shift at the Cake Booth
You can work the cake booth and win a cake too! Be the icing on the cake by volunteering! The cake booth needs 100 volunteers to cover every shift over the weekend. If you and your family enjoy the fun and fellowship that comes with this event, we ask that you please consider signing up to assist for a couple hours one night.
Help with Booth Set Up or Tear Down
Let's make it awesome for our parishioners by handling the setup, cleanup, and tear down. Â
The #1 need is for many folks to help tear down on Saturday night, 6/20. When we have a full crew like we've had in recent years, we're nearly done by 12:30 AM and have all the booth pieces loaded on the trailer. Please sign up for that night if you can. A big crew makes it go quickly.
As always, we'll have an enjoyable time working together on this effort. And drinks are provided. : )
Thanks in advance for your help.
Be a Dealer
Be a Dealer
The Gambling Booth has (7) Blackjack tables and (2) Texas Holdem’ tables. We are entirely staffed by volunteers from our parish, so we are always in need of folks who can work as dealers at these tables. We can train you. The only skills you need are basic math and a desire to have fun! Contact Jason at jason.trudeau31@gmail.com
Advertise With a Yard Sign
Advertise With a Yard Sign

Donate a Cake or Dessert
Do you like to bake? We need homemade desserts! Drop off homemade items on Friday and Saturday after 10a.m. the day of the picnic. Do you like to eat cake more than bake cakes? We also accept store bought desserts anytime during the Summer Picnic.
Or you can prepurchase a delicious cake from Plehn’s or Heitzman bakeries using the Cake Order Forms available at the back of church, or order online at www.store.stalbert.org. Your cake will be delivered directly to the picnic on your behalf—no baking or delivery required!Â
Donate a Stuffed Jar!
Donate a Stuffed Jar!
The Stuffed Jar Booth is one of our most popular games! To make it a success we rely on donations for the prizes. This is a fun way to get your family involved in the picnic. Here’s what you can do! Â
Collect or purchase clear plastic jars- clean, large sized peanut butter or snack jars, Glad or Ziploc food storage jars and inexpensive wide-mouth water bottles.
Fill a jar with treats and prizes- candy, stickers, puzzles, hair ties, sweatbands, art supplies, sports cards, glow sticks, Legos and small toys. Adult prizes too, like tea bags, nail polish, golf tees, retro candy and stationary items.
Drop your jar in the back of church by June 18th or directly to the Stuffed Jar Booth during Summer Picnic hours. Be creative!
