Smalltown and Dullbridge Carnivoo organisers have issued their annual appeal for volunteers.
Madley Dangeridge, one of the organisers, said “Rejected by the Police Force? Couldn’t cut it as a Security Guard? Fed up with people not respecting your authority? Then why not consider volunteering as a Carnivoo Marshall.
We are looking for people who feel comfortable looking officious whilst wearing Hi-Viz jackets and playing with road cones.
If you enjoy standing in front of crowds of people, manning barriers to prevent access and shouting “Oi. You. You can’t do that.” then we’d love to hear from you.
You must be over-zealous, with a desire to stop people from doing anything which could be construed as mildly dangerous, slightly risky, or not very safe at all. An ability to identify molehills and turn them into mountains is desirable.
As part of the SaD Carnivoo team you’ll be able to parade through the streets of Smalltown alongside the Carnivoo looking very, very important (but not as important as the members of an actual Carnivoo Club).
Priority will be given to applicants who have a flashing light on top of their vehicle.”
Anyone interested in applying is asked to contact Sheriff Madley via the SaD Carnivoo website, which is two years out of date.
