June 19-23 Travelers Championship
Cromwell, CT
As one of the charity beneficiaries of the Travelers Championship, Camp staffs a family-friendly tent in the FanZone and provides Gallery Management Ambassadors (formerly called Hole Marshals) on Hole 18. Full day opportunities for the Gallery Management Ambassadors (GMA) and half day opportunities for the FanZone are available each day. All of the volunteer opportunities are for ages 16 and older.
GMA volunteers are stationed at Hole 18 on the course to assist the Hole Captain in maintaining appropriate crowd behavior and foot traffic during play. GMA's are positioned at various locations around the hole, from the tee box to the green with differing roles, experiencing the action of the Travelers Championship first hand! Volunteers will rotate through positions to assist in keeping spectators still/quiet while players are taking their shots and tracking ball flight so that shots landing outside the fairway can be located. Though GMA's spend most of their shift on their feet and in the sun, it’s a great way to get outside and experience the excitement of the tournament while volunteering for Camp! Shirt, hat, grounds pass and a guest pass for entire event are included and parking/meals provided for each volunteer day. There is a two day volunteer requirement per PGA for this volunteer opportunity.
FanZone volunteers are stationed at our Camp tent welcoming guests, assisting children with fun Campy crafts/activities and giving out Camp information! Shirt, grounds pass for the day, parking and meal included. Register Here
