Thank you to all our volunteers who worked with us at the 2023 Festival!! We had record-making patronage at our popular food booth.
Volunteers help us set up, prepare, and serve traditional foods. We literally cannot have this midsummer celebration without your help. You can have first pick of 2024 shifts if you come to the frikadeller and aebleskiver making event we have in May before Festival. Most shifts are two hours long; you may sign up for as many shifts as you like. We ask volunteers to please report to the Booth five minutes before your shift begins for the shift transition.
We also have sign-ups for booth setup and booth breakdown.
We have booth instructions, so if you would like a copy just email us at lowercolumbiadanes@gmail.com and we will be happy to provide information to you.
If you have or are interested in obtaining an Oregon Food Handlers’ License, then you can serve as a “Køkken Jarl” - a leader to help coordinate the booth for a whole or half day. We would like to have 3 or 4 responsible adults to serve in this capacity - if you are a professional food service person, then please consider using your expertise to help us out as the Oregon Health Department requires that each shift have a licensed person in charge.
Sign-up lists will be updated every few days during May and June to show which shifts still have open slots.
BOOTH LOCATION: We are located at the southwest corner of the Festival Arena, at the end of the first row of booths when you walk into the Arena (to your left as you enter).
