See Steely Dan, Rebelution, the Fray, Heart and other great bands at no cost this summer while helping King County Parks keep the Marymoor Park concert venue sparkling clean and reduce waste going to the landfill.
King County Parks is seeking volunteers for its Marymoor recycling/composting crew at this summer’s Marymoor Park Concerts. As in past years, volunteers receive free admission and parking for the shows at which they volunteer.
As part of its ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship, King County Parks is working with concert promoter AEG Live to promote recycling and composting to concertgoers and keep the venue free of litter.
With the help of volunteers, King County Parks has been able to reduce the impact of the concert series by diverting from the landfill more than half of the waste generated by the shows, instead sending recyclable and compostable materials to processing facilities for reuse.
Prospective volunteers must be at least 18 years old, and no experience is necessary. Volunteers will be able to watch the show before or after their shift and are able to hear the entire concert. Shifts last approximately three hours, and start times vary with each concert. Groups and families are encouraged to volunteer together.
Volunteers are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis, and since shifts fill quickly, interested volunteers are encouraged to submit their concert requests as soon as possible.
