Re: Suggestions for a event volunteer?

Everyone has made some great suggestions, so I'm not going to reiterate them, with the exception of STAY HYDRATED cause that is super-duper important, and oft forgotten.

It's probably too late for this season but if you are going to be volunteering at multiple events, I suggest buying your own headset for the radios. (Just check what connection you need, 1-pin vs 2-pin). Everyone has preferences as to what type of headset they prefer, and that might differ from what the event has.

Bring a spare pair of socks with you and change them out at lunch. I know this seems kinda silly and trivial but you would be surprised how much it helps.

And the most important thing to remember at the events is: HAVE FUN!!! Happiness and fun are infectious, so not only will you more enjoy volunteering, but the people around you will enjoy their time more as well.
