Celebrate Weird Contest Week with Volunteers

We've had some fun using wacky holidays to celebrate our volunteers, but we have another one to share with you. The third week of August is Weird Contest Week. This one will take just a bit more planning on your part, but it doesn't have to involve a lot of expense. At Appreciate Volunteers, we have come up with a fun one that can take the whole week and doesn't cost much either. Find out more about our idea for paper napkin corsages.

But, that's just one idea. If you want to combine another fun event, plan a watermelon party and use a seed spitting contest. That's a pretty weird contest if you ask me.

Animal rescue groups can make use of this week to have naming contests for the next so-many animals that will need to be named. Of course, giving out cute awards as thank yous.

Take advantage of Weird Contest Week to make the workplace fun for your volunteers. It will be a great way to show your appreciation and help you retain those precious volunteers.
