Love being part of something beautiful?
Come and lend a hand at this year’s Daltons National Rose Show hosted by the Waikato Rose Society at the Hamilton Gardens Pavillion from 7th-9th November 2025! This vibrant, colourful event celebrates the very best of New Zealand’s roses — and we need a few extra hands to help make it bloom.

What You’ll Be Doing:

We’re looking for friendly, able-bodied volunteers to assist with:

  • Setting up and packing down the event space (tables, chairs, coverings, etc.).
  • Keeping the Pavilion tidy and welcoming throughout the event.
  • Helping with light cleaning such as vacuuming and rubbish/recycling duties.

You’ll be working alongside our Show Managers and fellow volunteers, who will guide you through what’s needed. No experience required — just a positive attitude and a willingness to help!

Requirements:
  • Physically able to set up and pack down tables and chairs and other equipment e.g. table coverings.
  • Able to follow instructions and work well in a team.
  • You will need to wear closed toe shoes for this role.
Time commitment:
  • 7th November - 12.00pm-4.00pm or thereabouts.
  • 8th November - 8.30am-12.00pm or thereabouts.
  • 9th November - 3.30pm-6.00pm or thereabouts.

*You can do one or more shifts over the weekend depending on your availability. Please contact Janice McKeany 0279476500 if you need to discuss timings.
