The Sisters Folk Festival (SFF) is quickly approaching, and excitement is building as festival preparation is in full swing. SFF is in search of folks who can commit to 10 hours of volunteering throughout the festival weekend (September 6-8). In return, volunteers are given a wristband to enjoy the music at all 11 venues.

Many of the festival volunteer jobs are near or inside a venue, so catching your new favorite musician or band can be easy to do. The festival is seeking evening volunteers at several venues to monitor the door, run bike valet, tend bar and sell merchandise. There are even a few set-up and take-down volunteer spots available for those more inclined toward heavy lifting. SFF volunteers are given a volunteer T-shirt, festival wristband, and are invited to attend the post-festival volunteer appreciation party.

To join the volunteer team, visit http://www.sistersfolkfestival.org/volunteer and submit a volunteer application. Kate Donovan, event manager, will contact you with next steps.
