I have volunteered at Lockn' for the past three years, through a group called Work Exchange Team (WET). This year Lockn' hasn't appeared on the WET website, and the Lockn' website states they are not looking for volunteers. If I can't find a group to vol with, I can't go....has anyone else here heard of other vol opportunities? HELP!!
Even if you know any vendors looking for help...I ain't picky and am a hard worker. Will Work for Music!

Unfortunately I think many of them post relatively close to the event, which sucks for planning.

Maybe try CID since they run a big staff and (you would know) I think they manage a lot of volunteers?

Actually it's CID. I don't know what kind of volunteer program but it is a solid lead nonetheless. Here is email address for them...

OK, so I still haven't figured out how Lockn' is going to operate without its army of volunteers. But, bottom line, I don't have to worry about it now!

Evidently, I have friends I don't know about, because Andie Bee has contacted my and told me I had a Lockn' Miracle!

Seems the generous peeps on this board have bought me a ticket! I want to cry, I'm soooo touched. Seriously. Words can't describe what a wonderful thing this is.

Andie won't divulge who my benefactors are, so I can't thank you personally like I'd like to, so instead here's a group hug to everyone who has made this possible!

<<<<HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUG!>>>>

You guys are the bestest!

See you at Lockn'!
