Saline Celtic Festival volunteers could win $50 gift card!

Volunteers during Saline Celtic Festival week not only get a free pass to the Festival—Friday, July 8 (evening) and all day Saturday, July 9—but there are two opportunities to be entered into drawings for $50 gift cards.

“High school students are encouraged to sign up,” says organizer Terri Murphy.

“No experience necessary! Help includes setting up tables and chairs, hanging banners and distributing equipment throughout the festival locations. Each 3-hour shift for pre-Festival set up gets your name in a drawing for a $50 gift card and free admission to the festival—and Saturday volunteers will be entered into another drawing for a $50 gift card.”

Interested? Here’s how you can help:

Tuesday, July 5

Meet at the Mill Pond Park Pavilion at 10:30 a.m., to help when tents, gear and equipment roll in.
