How Can I Get Involved?
Fireside Pizza Cart Volunteer
Note: With the ongoing COVID-19 situation and the Stay at Home Order, MAP has currently cancelled all pizza cart volunteer opportunities in March and April. MAP staff will update Fireside Pizza Cart volunteer information and opportunities in early May.
MAP has been selected by the employees of Fireside Pizza in Squaw Valley to be the beneficiary non-profit partner for 2020. MAP will receive 100% of proceeds from the pizza cart sales and restaurant guests will be able to make donations to MAP at checkout as well. We are seeking reliable volunteers to staff the pizza cart on select weekends and special events at Fireside in the Village at Squaw. Volunteers will work with Fireside staff to serve pizza at the pizza cart for four hour shifts in the village. Volunteers will need to be able to get to and from the Village at Squaw Valley for the volunteer shift. The pizza cart operations will also be subject to good weather in the winter months. Training will be provided by Fireside Pizza manager. Click here to see the available shifts and to sign up!>>
