Tickets and Parking
All orientation packets have been mailed or picked up at our orientation. THERE AREN’T PARKING PASSES to hang from your mirror like past years. Your admission ticket is also your parking shuttle access. Please download and print this letter just in case since it’s a new policy and our volunteers have paper tickets and not badges. Big E Employee and Volunteer Shuttle Access Letter
If you signed up late you may need to pick up your ticket at the front desk of our hotel, the Candlewood Suites, 572 Riverdale St, West Springfield MA 01089, on your way to the fair. Emily or Kelly will be in touch with you to make arrangements, and if you don’t hear from us and haven’t seen your packet in the mail, please call or e-mail one of us.
What’s in the above Orientation Documents?
Please take some time to read through all of the notes below before your shift, especially if you were unable to attend the orientation.
- New Volunteer Information
- Volunteer Orientation Notes
- Directions to Candlewood Suites and the Employee Parking Lot.
- NH Tourism Booth Emergency Procedures
- Our “Hot List” – answers to some tough questions we think we’ll get asked

Volunteer Service Agreement
The other paper in your packet is a Volunteer Service Agreement – please fill it out and bring with you to your shift. Everyone needs to have a signed Volunteer Service Agreement on file in order to volunteer. On the back of the agreement is a place to list emergency contact info – if your primary emergency contact will be volunteering with you, consider adding a second person who is not on the Big grounds just in case.
