Seeking Grand Opening Volunteers!

“M-1 RAIL is looking for QLINE All-Stars to work with our team throughout the weekend as ambassadors, hospitality hosts, information station captains and kid zone volunteers. All shifts will be four hours and volunteers will have the opportunity to participate in one of the most historic weekends in Detroit’s history as we bring back streetcars to the city after 60 years. Volunteers will receive commemorative QLINE swag, free parking and more.

“QLINE All-Star must be at least 16 years of age, and able to sit or stand for long periods of time. Most importantly volunteers must be willing to spread QLINE All-Star cheer to everyone coming out to join in the fun of the QLINE’s opening weekend. All volunteers will be asked to attend the QLINE All-Star Volunteer Orientation held in early May.  For more information and to sign up, please visit the M-1 RAIL website, m-1rail.com/volunteer or call 313-483-1336.  The deadline to sign up is April 21, 5 p.m.”
