Volunteer

In 2009, almost 170 volunteers participated in the RDO Caters Taters for Charity event. Most of the volunteers are RDO Equipment Co. and R.D. Offutt Company employees. However, we have also enjoyed volunteer participation from NDSU’s Ceres Women’s Fraternity, NDSU's Sigma Alpha Epsilon, NDSU and Concordia Circle K Clubs, MSTCM SHRO, US Bank and State Bank of Fargo.

What does volunteering involve? The night before the event, we wash and wrap the potatoes for baking and do other prep work. On the day of the event, volunteers perform any number of tasks, including helping with set up and decorating, selling tickets at the door, seating customers, clearing tables, serving lunch to our dine-in guests and filling take-out orders.

If you are a member of a group that is interested in helping with our event, please contact:
