The Quad Cities Convention & Visitors Bureau (QCCVB) and Sports Commission will be looking for volunteers to keep score, announce games, work admission gates and beer tents, shuttle fans, and help with visitor information. Visit www.iscquadcities.com to email with your interest. Scheduling of volunteers will begin late May.
