join THE SEED CAMPGROUND, TRAFFIC & FESTIVAL FLOW  work exchange TEAM at LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE 2019!!!!!!


WHY PARTICIPATE IN THE WORK EXCHANGE PROGRAM WITH SEED FOR LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE 2019?

Work exchange has been expressed as, “It’s not about the pieces, but how they work together.” The SEED Campground, Traffic & Festival Flow operation is large with a lot of moving parts! We are just one piece of a very big production puzzle that when put together, creates something quite beautiful and special.


WHAT WILL I DO?

We like to have a lot of fun on the SEED team and we make lot of friends during the show. However, we are still the Campground, Traffic & Festival Flow Team! That being said, becoming a member of this team is not for the faint of heart; we are directing traffic, managing cross walk gates, helping patrons to their campsites and ensuring safety on the roads! It may not be the most glamorous of roles, but it is very important and quite rewarding as well. We love what we do, and as the SEED team, we do our best to give you a rad experience!
