But being too dedicated isn't that bad. There are some things money can't but, and being a part of change is one of them. A lot of people start off working at the fest and find that they want to do more. This year we will need over 800 volunteers working with folks on everything from security and hospitality, to helping the vendors or joining stage crews. Everybody is an expert at something, there lots to do and every pair of hands makes a difference.
Folks can pick out their shifts beforehand, and have fun the rest of the time.
All you have to do is visit our website and fill out the volunteer application. We ask everybody to come to a short training meeting in August. If you are coming from out of town we will have a quick orientation on the day before the festival. We'll talk about what to expect during your shift, and what to do if any problems arise. But as in years past, every thing always goes good, even with the police.
