Olney Days can only happen with our Volunteers
​Be Part of Something BIG

It takes over 100 adult volunteers to put together and run all the different events that make up the Olney Days Weekend.  Be part of the fun.  Click here  to see a list of lead positions that require just 3-10 hours of your time (most done via email so easily fits into your schedule) and starts now.  In January we will post ~3 hour opportunities to help at the event (selling tickets, directing people, etc.).  It's not all work and no play. Adult volunteers will be invited to an Olney Days Kick Off Party and a Wrap Up Party. It is a great way to interact with other volunteers and build new relationships.

What is Olney Civic Fund?


​Olney Civic Fund supports Olney area non-profits as well as plans community events such as Olney Days, Barrel Aged Beer Event, and Oktoberfestival. Olney Days events are FREE to attend but the expenses for the entire Olney Days weekend cost  $55,000.  The largest costs is for Party in the Park and include the park rental fees, fireworks, and the stage & sound. Sponsorships cover most of the expenses but individual donations are also needed.  As Olney has grown, Olney Days keeps the small town feel where new relationships are made and old relationships are nurtured.
