Volunteer

The Father’s Day Festival has from its inception been an all-volunteer-run affair. It still is – unlike most other festivals of its size and scope. Perhaps that’s why it feels so friendly: just about everything, including ice delivery, stage management, ticket taking, and campsite layout is managed by fellow Bluegrass and Old-time lovers.

We invite you to join the team and help make this year’s event the best one ever!
