HemlockFest 2009 Volunteers

Putting on HemlockFest is a big operation and depends on help from lots of volunteers -- before, during, and after the festival.  "General" volunteers sign up for specific time shifts and function within a volunteer pool under the direction of a Volunteer Coordinator.    

Volunteers are also needed to assist with the Hemlock vs. woolly adelgid puppet parade during specific time slots under the direction of Bob Billings. 

So if you're flexible and want to help, please sign up to be a HemlockFest Volunteer.  Volunteers not only have a great time, but there are special benefits too!

General Volunteer Duties

Duties are variable and based on whatever's needed at the time, but might include activities such as:
