Interested in helping LOTS of local nonprofit organizations raise much-needed funds to run their programming?
The Troy Strawberry Festival, which hosts up to 150,000 guests each June, needs volunteers to assist with load-in prior to the festival and to serve as ambassadors at multiple shuttle sites throughout the event.
Although there are pre-festival events which take place in May, the Strawberry Festival officially begins on Friday night with food and entertainment for the whole family on our beautiful Great Miami River Levee! Two full days of events follow beginning with Open Ceremonies on Prouty Plaza. From there the main action continues on the Historic Streets of Downtown Troy and along the Great Miami River Levee! Browse over 200 high quality art and craft booths. If you can make it with strawberries, you will find it at the Troy Strawberry Festival. More than 70 food booths offer everything from strawberry salsa, chocolate covered strawberries, strawberry BBQ sauce, and of course the famous strawberry donuts! Great family entertainment, two stages of free entertainment, free shuttle service and free admissions.
The Festival is more than just a weekend of fun. It serves as a major fund-raising event for many of the area’s civic and charitable groups. Committees work year-round to prepare for the weekend when as many as 150,000 people come to Troy to take part in our festival.
You can personally impact the experience of each festival guest for our 2016 event through these positions. We’ll treat you well too! Snacks and water are provided, and load-in volunteers even earn a free T-shirt.
Spread the word! Corporate groups, church groups, service organizations, families, and groups of friends are all welcome!
Saturday, June 4th – 10:00am – 8:00pm
Sunday, June 5th – 10:00am – 6:00pm.
