What Is Chaska River City Days?

Chaska River City Days is a community festival and celebration of the City of Chaska along the Minnesota River. It runs the full weekend of July 24-26, and we’ll be there from 10:00am to 8:00pm on Saturday, July 25.
 
You’re welcome to plan time to walk around the event before or after your volunteer shift.

Volunteering With Compassionate Action for Animals

At the event, CAA will be tabling between 10:00am and 8:00pm on Saturday, July 25. We’ll talk to attendees about compassion for farmed animals and plant-based eating. We’ll offer free games, resources, and magazines, as well as quick actions people can take to protect animals.

At the front table, we’ll have a spin wheel game where attendees guess an answer to a question that helps them learn about common animal agriculture practices.

Sample spin wheel questions include:

Chicken farmers are encouraged to provide how many square feet per chicken? [Answer: less than 1, according to the National Chicken Council and average weights]
Nearly all pigs in the U.S. have parts of their body cut off without any painkillers. What part? [Answer: their tail, according to studies from Porcine Health Management] 
On egg farms, what percentage of chicks are killed within 1 day of birth? [answer: 50% – look up chick culling] 

The answers are all available on a cheat sheet for volunteers. This trivia format gives people heavy answers about animal cruelty in a digestible, quick format. For young children who are still learning the basics of the world, we have fun questions about animals (did you know fish can recognize different songs?). After the attendees play trivia, we talk together about the question they got, and provide concrete next steps, like writing a letter to their representative or corporation or taking the Veg Pledge. 

Who Can Volunteer?

If you’re passionate about animal protection and providing resources to help people move towards plant-based eating, this event is for you. We’ll support you throughout your shift in how to do effective outreach. 

We ask that volunteers under 16 years old be accompanied by a parent, guardian, or other responsible adult. (Please sign up for just one volunteer slot together.)

Resources for Volunteers

We’ll reach out to you via email prior to the event to share contact and location info for the event. 

At the event, you’ll meet the other people participating in outreach and read over our outreach materials. We’ll help you know what to say to attendees and give you spin wheel questions. If you’re new to outreach, you’re welcome to watch several interactions between others to get an idea of how conversations typically go! 

We’ll have snacks, drinks, sunscreen, and bug repellent available to volunteers at the event.
