Food & Beverage
The heart and soul of the festival – our famous food. Sometime between 1937 and today a local reporter coined us as “the festival that’s tops in food,” and we ran with it. Check out all the ways you can help us making, dishing, and serving this amazing food.
Charity Gaming
Are you a Blackjack, Poker, Craps, or Roulette guru? You should be a dealer in our casino. Not into the games, but like sitting in air conditioning? Shuffle cards, count chips, or cash out players. Or, maybe you’d like something more social like selling 50/50 Raffle Tickets.
Kids & Teens
We have Kids Games back for a second year (after their run ended in 2019). We need adults to cashier and anyone age 7+ to run the games. We also need people 18+ to supervise various components of our new “Teen Zone” in the north lawn. These are easy, outdoor tasks.
Grounds & Operations
Help setup and tear down festival; keep the grounds clean and sanitary during the event; meet and accommodate bands and DJ during arrival, parking, setup, and breaks; run urgent supply errands; and serve on our internal Safety Patrol to support our paid Officers.
Guest Services
Roam the grounds or sit at stations around campus, providing support to guests. Navigation, start and stop times, how to navigate our website on their phone, and just about anything else. Roamers will help enforce parking, smoking, and alcohol policies.
Support Services
These are the roles that don’t fit nicely in other categories, but are just as important (or more, shhh, don’t tell them). Dishwashers, Truck Unloaders and Stockers, Drive-Thru Order Takers and Runners, Cashiers, Technical Support, and other “Jack/Jill of all trades” helpers.
