Texas Folklife Festival

JASSA Needs volunteers!
The Texas Folklife Festival is one of the most enjoyable and important events for JASSA, and our volunteers are what make it so successful! For 2012, we need your help again to make our participation another success.

If you help us minimum one shift (more is better!), we provide you with a wrist band which allows you to be admitted into the festival free on all 3 days. Also, your friends and family are welcome to volunteer. For booth setup, we need pickup trucks. Your help and support would be greatly appreciated. We provide all volunteers with lunch or/and dinner from our menu items, and you have an access to all other booths during the festival period. This schedule from 2011 should give you an idea of how much help and when it is needed.
