Bear River Winter Craft Fair Volunteer Call-Out

The Annual Bear River community-wide Winter Craft Fair is coming soon.
If you have a few hours to volunteer at the main fair at the Oakdene Centre, please get in touch with Jess or Katie bearriverevents@gmail.com

🚪 Welcome & Door Volunteers — Our Biggest Priority!

Our door accounts for approximately 50% of the day’s fundraising proceeds, making this one of the most important volunteer roles at the fair!

We’re looking for friendly faces to welcome visitors,  help at the entrance, and hand out door prizes. It’s a great opportunity to meet people from the community!

  • 9:30 AM – 12:00 PM: 2 volunteers needed
  • 12:00 PM – 3:00 PM: 2 volunteers needed

🎟️ Raffle Ticket Sales

  • 12:00 PM – 3:00 PM: 2 volunteers needed

📦 Vendor Assistance – Saturday, November 28

We’re looking for volunteers to help our vendors get settled in the morning and packed up at the end of the fair.

  • 7:30 AM – 10:00 AM: Help vendors unload their vehicles and carry their goods into the gymnasium.
  • 3:00 PM – 4:30 PM: Help vendors carry their remaining goods back to their vehicles and assist with tear-down.

🪑 Table Set-Up – Friday, November 27

We’ll be setting up tables and preparing the gymnasium the day before the fair.

  • Time: To be confirmed
  • Approximately 2 hours

We already have a few volunteers signed up for this, but more hands make lighter work! The more help we have, the quicker we can get everything ready.

The fair runs from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM at the Oakdene Centre in Bear River.

Treats provided for all volunteers! 😊

Interested in helping? Please contact us at bearriverevents@gmail.com and let us know which position and time slot works best for you.

Can’t volunteer yourself? Please ask a friend! You don’t need to be a Board of Trade member to lend a hand. Every bit of help makes a difference!

Thank you for your support!
