VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR JULY 4th EVENT

Celebrate Frederick, Inc. is looking for volunteers to assist with the Frederick’s 4th – An Independence Day Celebration. Join a dynamic group of volunteers who help coordinate one of Frederick’s premiere events…and have some fun on the 4th!

Event assistance is needed in the following areas: Amusement Ticket Sales, Information Booth, Chili-Cook Off and Event Set-Up.

In addition, volunteers are needed to be a part of the largest audience survey project ever undertaken by a non-profit in Frederick County. Sponsored by an Ausherman Family Foundation grant, Celebrate Frederick’s survey volunteers will help the organization gain valuable information about the who, what, where and why of the 4th of July event.

Peggy Dufour, President of Celebrate Frederick, shares “This first-of-a-kind effort will help us understand who our audience is, where they came from, what they like about our events, and how we can make them better. We’re looking for a high performance survey team of volunteers to help on any of all of our fifteen events.” As part of Celebrate Frederick’s community outreach, survey results will be made available free of charge to all non-profit groups in the County to support their marketing programs.


Volunteers must be at least 18 years of age to participate. All shifts range from 2-3 hours and free refreshments and t-shirt are provided.

If you are looking for a great way to get involved in the Frederick Community, what better way than by becoming a valuable volunteer with Celebrate Frederick? Get involved, meet people, and have fun!

Information is available by calling 301-600-2845 or by visiting www.CelebrateFrederick.com.

The events would not be possible without the generous support of our corporate sponsors. The 2010 Spires Level Sponsors are Bechtel Group Foundation and Spectrum Federal Credit Union. The 2010 Carillon Sponsors are Comcast, Sandy Spring Bank, 99.9 WFRE/930 WFMD and Weis Markets.
