Free entry to Falls - volunteer with Save-a-mate
I just spoke to the Red Cross Save-a-mate campaign organiser, and they're hell keen for volunteers to apply this week. If you didn't get a ticket to Falls and want to go, do this!
Applications close this Friday 8 December.
It's a volunteer program for young people to hang out in the Red Cross tents and give out info and freebies about safe partying.
They've got thier heads right about the whole thing; they're non-judgemental and are realistic about peeps partying and going full tilt over NYE - the Save-a-Mate tents are info and freebies green rooms, and sound pretty cool for daytime volunteering to me.
