The Subdued Stringband Jamboree is a volunteer run festival and we need your help!
|
|
Each year 50+ volunteers work to make the Jamboree happen. In exchange, volunteers get entry into the festival and a dose of civic pride!
Volunteers during the festival are required to work 2-3hrs per day to receive a pass.
Many volunteer shifts happen before and after the festival. Below is a brief description of some of the volunteer jobs.
