Volunteer role descriptions
Admissions Team
The Admissions Team is responsible for the controlled entry of guests, workers, and participants into WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca during events. Volunteers play a vital role in maintaining smooth, friendly, and safe operations while ensuring every visitor receives a professional welcome. Admissions volunteers are often the first point of contact with guests, therefore professionalism, clear communication, and teamwork are essential.
Camping Committee
The Camping Committee manages the campgrounds and provides essential support to campers throughout the event. This team oversees check-in operations, and ensures campers are placed correctly in their designated sites. Camp Hosts maintain regular patrols within each campground to monitor fire lanes and support a positive, organized camping experience for all guests.
Concessions Committee
The Concessions Committee supports all beverage distribution and sales operations. Volunteers assist with walking up sales at the Concessions Building, managing POS transactions, tracking outgoing stock, and delivering beverages and ice to designated locations throughout the weekend. This team plays a vital role in keeping vendors and hospitalities supplies and maintaining accurate inventory.
First Aid Committee
The First Aid Committees provide all on site health support for spectators throughout each event weekend. The First Aid Committee focuses exclusively on the general public, offering non-emergency care.
Hospitality Team
The Hospitality team provides support and guest care across premium and general information areas. Volunteers in this department serve as ambassadors for the raceway. Because hospitality roles require consistent guest interaction and schedule awareness, volunteers must maintain strong communication skills and professionalism. Your presence ensures a positive and welcoming experience for guests.
Paddock Team
The Paddock team manages race teams, haulers, motorhomes, and guest coverage. Because this area combines vehicle movement, pedestrian traffic, and team operations, paddock volunteers must maintain awareness, clear communication, and attention to safety. Paddock volunteers work under Operations and coordinate closely with race control and security.
Race Activities Committee
The Race Activities Committee supports ceremonial, fan engagement and presentation elements during an event. Working with the Marketing Team, this committee manages podium celebrations, stage flow, and fan activities to keep things on schedule.
Recruiting Committee
The Recruiting Committee supports efforts to grow and engage the volunteer community. This team manages volunteer check-in, assists new and returning volunteers with materials and orientation, and promotes volunteer opportunities to spectators and community members.
Vehicle Control Team
The Vehicle Control team manages vehicle movement and parking around the perimeter of WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca and Laguna Seca Recreation Area. Team members ensure safe traffic flow, direct guests to correct parking or camping areas, and coordinate closely with Admissions and Security.
