The Kingsport Public Library will be hosting the Behind the Book Festival on July 18! We will have over 70 authors participating and we are in need of volunteers to help us make this festival fantastic. The festival will be running from 10am to 4pm on the 18th and we are also asking for a few volunteers to help with setting up tables and chairs the evening before.  

There are different tasks for the following shift times, so please check carefully and make sure you feel capable and comfortable with the duties! You are also welcome to sign up for the length of the entire festival or multiple shifts if that feels doable for you.  

We cannot accept volunteers without receiving the correct paperwork before July 10. There is an authorization form for a background check as well as a volunteer waiver available at the library, or you can email laineking@kingsporttn.gov to receive them digitally. If you come to the library without completing this paperwork and having it cleared, we will not be able to have you help with the festival.

Shift Descriptions:

July 17, 5pm – 7pm : Volunteer(s) will report to the library to help unload chairs and tables, as well as get them set up following the layout we have planned. Very physical!  

July 18, 9:00am-12pm : Volunteer(s) will help finish setting up and get the rundown of how we will be greeting authors and directing them to their designated space. When patrons start arriving, volunteers will make sure to welcome them and give them information about the festival. Volunteers may also be walking around and checking if anyone needs a break. If so, the volunteer will watch their table until they return. 

July 18, 11:30am-1:30pm : Volunteer(s) for this shift will be primarily focusing on lunch distribution. They will be working alongside library staff to make sure all of the authors receive what they ordered in a timely fashion.  

July 18, 1pm – 3pm : Volunteer(s) may be welcoming and directing guests or offering breaks for the authors. Other tasks may come up, especially with the afternoon panels, storytime, and keynote speaker.  

July 18, 3pm-5pm: Volunteer(s) will help start the process of taking down tables and chairs, cleaning up, and helping remaining authors get packed and ready to go. You are welcome to stay later than 5 if you wish to help get everything done for the day. Very physical!

Hands On Nashville | Food Pantry Volunteer #sharing

About Reflection Riding: Set on 300 breathtaking acres just 10 minutes from downtown Chattanooga, Reflection Riding is part public park, part nature center, part wild lands, and all outdoor learning. They restore the vital connection between people and nature — believing that everyone, regardless of where they live or their economic status, deserves the opportunity to experience the outdoors. When nature is accessible to all, Chattanooga becomes stronger and more connected. And when young people learn to appreciate the natural world, they become lifelong champions for it. Reflection Riding is home to a native plant nursery, wildlife sanctuary, arboretum, and environmental education programs that serve thousands of visitors each year.

Volunteering With Us Reflection Riding thrives because of dedicated community volunteers who give their time and talents to support our mission. Whether you're a plant enthusiast, animal lover, people person, or skilled tradesperson, there's a meaningful role for you here.

Volunteer Opportunities Include:

How to Apply: Interested volunteers can apply online or reach out directly to Logan Epperson, Volunteer and Donor Engagement Manager, at logan@reflectionriding.or.

Drivers pick up meals between 10 - 10:30 and usually are finished before noon.  Drivers typically deliver once a month.  While most drivers continue to volunteer with us for many years, new drivers should commit to at least a year (12 one hour shifts total).  Since we all have conflicts from time to time, finding a sub or a swap is easy. The entire route is mapped out for you, with step-by-step directions to go from one stop to the next.  You'll deliver the same route each month.  Please join us!

Cocktail hour through dinner · Essential to the experience

Every memorable event has people working with quiet care to make the experience feel effortless for guests, and that's exactly what an Event Steward does.

Help us bring some cheer to isolated seniors, seniors in nursing homes and/or disabled individuals in our communities by sending them heartfelt letters, letting them know that we care about them.

We are looking for uplifting letters that will bring their recipients some joy!

This month the theme for the letters is "Travel". Share about your favorite travel location, any travel locations on your bucket list or location you have recently traveled to. Take the reader to that location, feel free to include pictures.

You can incorporate the theme through art, by making your own themed cards and within the message of your letter.

We are looking to have this round of letters completed and received by their recipients by 08/31/2026. Please allow a couple of days for mailing and distribution. 

If you are interested in sending letters and/or art to seniors in the community, please click on sign up and include in your response (in the notes) how many letters you would like to write. I will contact you with specific instructions for the letters and the address to send them to.  

Younger children are welcome to participate with their parents or a guardian/caregiver (an adult is required for minors younger than 13 to sign up). 

Volunteers will be required to have their own materials for the letters and any additional artwork you'd like to add, as well as stamps to mail the letters on hand (or you must be able to take them to the post office). I will try my best to provide you with one address for your letters so you can mail them together in a large envelope. 

Please allow 48 hours for me to get back to you with the instructions. 

If you are in need of community service hours, I am happy to confirm your hours for you. Please submit pictures of your letters as proof. We will be tracking and logging the actual time you spent working on the letters/cards and do NOT assign a specific number of letters per hour. Please check with your institution if they have specific requirements of how many letters you need to complete to get your hours approved.
