Volunteers are vital to the South Country Fair. Each year upwards of 275 volunteers help us create a weekend of music and friendship for all who attend. In exchange for volunteering, you receive a discount entry to the Fair and a cool SCF t-shirt. Interested? Keep reading!
South Country Fair Volunteer Requisites:
- a desire to become involved in the Fair and meet new people
- a willingness to treat other volunteers, performers, staff, and public with respect
- a commitment of 8 hours over two shifts, to the crew to which you are assigned
- sign an agreement to fulfill tasks and minimum time commitment as agreed with your CREW COORDINATOR
Volunteer Benefits
There are many, but a few of them are:
- becoming part of SCF and the broader festival Community in the bargain
- learn there is more to things than "a bottom line", or the "chain of command"
- settle back into your bones-and enjoy the moment
- remember what it is like to be treated like a person instead of a machine
- a huge break on a weekend pass
- a covetted SCF tee
- a warm fuzzy feeling that lingers for weeks
- early access camping -- only volunteers will have access to on-site camping before Friday morning's general admission. Volunteer camping will begin on the Wednesday prior to The Fair and end the following Wednesday. Of course, volunteers who are actively involved in either set up or strike may, with permission, camp on site prior to the designated dates. Early volunteer access is from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM Wednesday & Thursday prior to The Fair.
To become a volunteer you need to register. Use the account login at the bottom of this page. Once you are registered here at our website, a feedback form will appear so you can send a message directly to our volunteer coordinator! Please specify your preferred area with a couple of alternates in order of preference i.e.: security, environment, site teardown or setup, etc. Please remember you may not initially get in to the one you would like most.
