What's the minimum age for serving at Night Strike?
6th grade is the minimum age that a person may volunteer at Night Strike without a parent or legal guardian. Minors are required to be accompanied by a responsible adult.It’s our priority to provide a safe, family friendly atmosphere for our Night Strike volunteers. However, there is always a small risk involved. If this is a concern, please give us a call and we’d love to talk.
Do I need to register before each date that I volunteer?
Yes. Our online registration fills up fast! If you do not register, you may not be able to volunteer with us at Night Strike.
Is there any special training to get involved at Night Strike as a volunteer?
We host an orientation from 7:00-8:00pm prior to Night Strike. During that time you will receive essential safety training and direction for all we do in the city and under the bridge that night. Arriving after 7:00pm may mean your job will be reassigned, so come early! If you arrive after 7:15pm, you will have missed essential safety information, and may be excluded from serving guests under the bridge.
Can I store my stuff at Liberation Street Church?
No. Please do not bring your valuables, extra bags, or backpacks to Night Strike. The staff cannot store them at Liberation Street Church. Please leave valuables at home or in your vehicles. We do not want our guests to be put into situations that create temptation to steal.
Where should I park?
There are lots of parking options! There is a parking lot on Ankeny between 2nd and the MAX line, or a parking garage on NE Davis and 1st. Or you can look for street parking.
