Concession Shifts

Concession Stand

The Northern Lights Concession Stand located in the VFW Arena is operated by volunteer parents of the Northern Lights Figure Skating Club. The proceeds from the concession stand are used to offset the costs of testing, team competition fees, and to promote and encourage figure skating. To help ensure the club’s success please visit us while at the rink and help out by volunteering your time.

Concession Stand Requirements

One of the Northern Lights Figure Skating Club's goals is to help our skater's financially. The club has only 2 forms of income, one of them being our concession stand sales.  Each year we ask each family to volunteer for a specific number of shifts to assist in supporting the club. 

The requirements can be found on the below.


Dibs Volunteer Tool

We are now utlizing the new DIBS system to help manage our Concession Stand volunteer opportunities. Going forward all volunteer opportunities will be available through the DIBS menu. To get started, please do the following:

STEP 1CLICK HERE to activate your Volunteer account by registering.  This activation prepares your website account to become a user of the Dibs Volunteer Tool.   This activation is required of all volunteers.

STEP 2: CLICK HERE to begin viewing and claiming the available volunteer opportunities! Or go to the "DIBS" tab located at the top of the page.

How to "claim" an item? LOGIN (located in the upper left hand corner of the screen) and enter username and password. Click on the DIBS tab.  When you find an item that works, simply click on that item and select "claim this DIB item". You may filter your choices by opportunity or by date.

How to view "claimed" DIB items? If you sign up for an opportunity online and can't remember the information, simply log on with your username and password (located in the upper left hand corner of the screen) and click on "UTOOLS" (located on main menu bar) and then My Dibs: View all my currently claimed DIB items.

What to do after you have worked the shift? After you have completed the assigned duty, you may view your DIB items by entering your username and password  (located in the upper left hand corner of the screen) and then click on UTOOLS. Click on My Dibs: View all my currently claimed DIB items. You can then click on the text that is in the DIB ITEM column (for example, concessions). Then that will load up a new screen that will give you the option to select "verify completion". Once you have selected the "verify completion", you will get a message that states your request has been sent and will then be completed by the Volunteer Coordinator.
