Want to volunteer? Committee members will be available in the church hall before and after most masses in June and July. If you miss us, there will be links that will be listed with more detailed instructions in the church bulletin, or on Facebook and the Church and Festival websites. If you have not volunteered before, this year is your chance! High School students can get volunteer hours for set up and tear down as well as anytime throughout the Festival. There are many positions available for all levels of abilities! All volunteers are welcome! We will be setting up a simplified online sign up. You can go to these links. If you have not volunteered before or don’t get called this year, please contact us to sign up! We will do our best to meet your requests! If you have made a verbal agreement to work in one of the booths through the booth chair, please make it official by going to the link to verify your spot. That way we don’t have multiple workers signed up for the same booth at the same time.
This should will be another fun weekend for all.
