Need reliable people for important job in october!

[halfhorsepower]

I need people to help me up at the ticket office area of sleepy hollow hayride. This job includes dealing face to face with thousands of people a night friday saturday and sunday and one thursday on the last week. You will be expected to show up at 6:30 pm and stay till 10:30

Details of job & some info:

you will be working to help keep people out of restricted areas.

You will be responsible for keeping orderly lines and making sure people do not crowd the ticket booth.

You will be helping me cover the exit when i need to help a group.

You must be available every night, in cold, rain, or snow.

The area is paved in gravel & is muddy at times.

There is no flirting with, swearing at/near/around or starting fights with guests no matter what.

You must have good people skills.

You must be able to listen to and follow instructions given by the folks in charge and me.


I have been working here every october since 2001. The worst issue we have up front is lack of reliable people.

Compensation is 35 dollars per night, but may be more or less depending on how they handle that this year.

There is a meeting sometime on a sunday in september where you will be able to meet most of the people involved with the hayride including actors.


The job is very easy and straight forward. On Halloween or other nights you are welcome to come in costume. It is a lot of fun, and there is food provided if you miss dinner or need a snack. You can get on the rides for free, but not the haunted house as it is a separate operation just located on the same grounds. You are welcome one night to go through the house with the actors and other staff free of charge but you must pay other times.

Please do not tell your friends to come and hang out with you, however you can if you are not presently needed hop on a wagon ride with them once. If it's too crowded you will have to join them another time.

Friends & family do not get in for free. PM me for details.

This is an awesome place to work so anyone interested PM me ASAP!!!

Newtown. It's off washington crossing road on highland road on the edge of newtown township.

There's a store with attached gas station near the highland road intersection called village market if that helps you ID the area.

I'm not going to jynx it. When was the last time you or someone you know saw it snow in October?

It really isn't much work, you just gotta show up & work as a team w/ the other people. As for dealing with punk kids, i do that, not you.

$8.75/hr ain't bad for BS work like this.

Still, not enough money to pull me out there. Now, if we're talking about hiding and scaring people... I may be interested
