Volunteer Work vs. Work


Not all jobs on campus are paid. There are a lot of jobs in which students can volunteer their time with the reward that they have done something for someone else. These tasks can also be really fun and one of the newest upcoming volunteer events at the University of Maine is the Sex Carnival. This event will be held April 5th from 2-6pm.


The Sex Carnival is an awareness event that students can learn about safe practices of having sex or just general information about Sex. The Carnival is run primarily by students and is put on by the FYRE program. There are somewhere in the proximity of 30 stations in which students set up games, have food, or give out prizes.


The whole process of setting up for the event includes weekly meetings, making advertisements, setting up budgeting, purchasing of necessary articles, and the set up of the event itself. The event requires a lot of help and is a lot of fun for students to interact and learn.
