LOTS OF WAYS TO VOLUNTEER
For Students looking to earn SSL hours, please go to the Montgomery Serves website and sign up there. This page describes volunteer opportunities for adults or older students ready to take on more responsibility.
It takes over 100 adult volunteers to make the Olney Days weekend run smoothly. Can you spare 2-3 hours? It's fun, you meet like-minded folks in the community, and you have the satisfaction of knowing you helped make the weekend a success. Plus you get a free lunch at Party in the Park and a really cool t-shirt to wear! All adult volunteers will be invited to an Olney Days Kick Off Party to be held April 22 (rain date April 23) and an Olney Days Wrap up Party on May 6 (rain date May 7).
