*On your first day of volunteering at Target Center, you will fill out a uniform purchase sheet at the check-in area and obtain your shirt there. Costs are charged to Achieving Dreams and deducted from your donation. You don’t need to bring cash to purchase your uniform.
No bags are permitted in the stands at Target Center, including fanny packs.
From the Hennepin @ 10th Ramp: Either take a street path or walk the skyway toward Target Center. The skyway entrance is via elevator from the underground parking. Follow the signs toward the State Theater and Target Center.
Once at the Skyway, there will be a check-in desk by the 612 Lounge.
At the Levy check-in desk, you will sign in, obtain your Target Center/Levy badge which must be displayed to enter the facility. Make sure to also pick up a meal ticket.
You must check-in with Levy to be eligible for a donation.
If you have brought any personal items, such a coat or bag, it must be placed in a locker before going to your stand. Place any coats or bags into the locker either in the hallway or the locker rooms on the D Level. Bring your own lock. 
Once you have secured your personal items, proceed to your stand. There is a passenger elevator near the main security desk and a freight elevator behind the marshalling area/loading dock.
The easiest way to the stands is the freight elevator located on the far side of the marshalling area. Take the freight elevator up to the 3rd floor if you are in a “100” number stand or 5th floor if you are in a “200” number stand. You will have to hold the “close door” button until the safety gate is fully shut before the elevator will move. When you exit the elevator, you must hold the close door button until it is all the way closed or it will stay open on that floor.
Find your way through the doors to the access the arena area and find your stand using the section numbers as your guide.
There is also a passenger elevator on the west side of the command center, to the right of the desk with the parking validation. This goes directly to the concourse. Do not take the elevator you took from the Skyway level upon entrance, as there is no access to the concourse. We may not use this passenger elevator once guests are in the building.
Sign-In: When you arrive at the stand, you should find the stand manager and sign in on three sheets.
1 The Achieving Dreams sign-in sheet.
2. The Levy Sign In/Sign Out Sheet
3, Alcohol Acknowledgement
If you are new, you should be assigned a buddy to help you. If you do not receive a buddy assignment, please ask one of the managers. It is their responsibility to assign buddies, but sometimes they don’t know you are new or may be busy at the time you signed in.
After signing in, you should be given a role and/or setup task. Most jobs are POS attendants, taking customer orders and payment and serving beer. A limited number of backup/runner and kitchen jobs are available.
You should use the checklists to help you complete the task successfully. If you are new, please ask another volunteer or the stand manager for help.
At Target Center, how meal breaks are handled depends on the event. Typically for a Timberwolves or Lynx game or large concert, Levy serves a family meal. This is a restaurant term for a group meal provided free of charge to be eaten before the event starts. For smaller events, Levy may provide a voucher or a food option from a specific stand. All breaks should be taken before gates open.
After the stand meeting, we will finish any remaining setup tasks, make sure the stand is clean and organized and begin serving food for volunteers. ‘
At the end of the event, everyone must help clean. All checklists must be turned
into the stand manager. Once verified, you will sign out by writing your shift end time on the Achieving Dreams sign-in sheet
