### Set-Up and Tear-Down Crew

Set-Up and Tear-Down volunteers are the backbone of the event, helping to transform the streets into a welcoming, car-free community space and ensuring everything is packed up smoothly afterward. From placing barricades and setting up activity zones to dismantling booths and clearing the route, this role is perfect for hands-on volunteers who love seeing a project come to life.

#### Key Responsibilities:

  • Assist with setting up tents, tables, signage, and activity stations before the event begins.
  • Help place barricades and traffic control equipment to ensure a safe route.
  • Dismantle and pack up event infrastructure after the event concludes.
  • Maintain an organized and efficient workflow during set-up and tear-down.

Here is the information on the event:

## Experience the city like never before.

For one day, our streets transform into vibrant public spaces where you can walk, bike, roll, dance, and connect with your community.
Without the usual traffic, we'll see just how much is possible when we prioritize people over cars—creating spaces that bring us closer together.

## This free, family-friendly event is for everyone.

Whether you're biking in a parade, joining a yoga session, or simply strolling with friends—come reimagine our streets as places for people.
Experience the possibilities of a more connected, livable Tempe.
