I did a day of volunteers work at Lelystad Airport for the Dutch Foundation Stichting Hoogvliegers.
Stichting Hoogvliegers makes kids (age 6~16) with a chronic or terminal illness, or a mental or physical challenge a "pilot for one day". They get transported in a convoy of trucks, police cars, fire trucks, etc. With a lot of noise
to the airport, where there is all sorts of things to do. There's live music, a clown, French fries, grime, a shop, dancing... the list goes on! And the highpoint of the day is, of course a short (30 mins. flight, during which most of them get to operate the controls and the radio for a bit
(if safety allows that, of course). For the severely ill or disabled, there is a hospital plane (Gippsland GA-8, I believe)
Here's a link to the official report of the day:

I was in charge of the static line (all the airplanes you see on display in the aerial view). The F-50, DC-3, and the PBY Catalina were open to visitors, and manned by their respective owners, so my job was mainly to welcome people, tell them a little about the planes, warn them not to wander off to "airside", and just generally make them feel at home.
And of course haul all the fences to (in the morning) and from (in the afternoon) the apron, fold out the tables and benches, and fold them back in again. All in all a long day; on my feet from 07:00 'till 19:00, but the smiles on those faces are worth it for sure
