Call for Septemberfest volunteers!
Just a short note to ask you to ‘save the date’ and volunteer by e-mail if you’re available to help for an hour or two at this year’s Septemberfest.
Building on the success of the last 4 years, plans are underway to make this year’s event even more spectacular, withextra activities and new exciting new food suppliers.
As a volunteer, your help is very much valued and we couldn’t do it without you. So, whether we’ve met before or if you’re volunteering for the first time, we’d very much like to hear from you.
The event, on Saturday 26th September, is open from 11 am to 4 pm. A few early birds are required from 9 to welcome our craft fair guests and food suppliers.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
