All volunteers and anyone interested in volunteering for the Almonte Celtfest are asked to attend a Volunteer Orientation/BBQ on Friday, July 10th at 6:30pm at Gemmill Park (Main Stage site). Volunteers will receive a Almonte Celtfest Volunteer Kit (which includes a free t-shirt, food vouchers, schedules, etc) as well as FREE BBQ food!
