The annual Capital Ribfest is a new "In the Round" Foodie Experience. Ribfest volunteers have the opportunity to learn about what it takes to keep 1000s of Rib-eaters happy while networking with local businesses and other community volunteers  You are also in the perfect place to enjoy the continuous entertainment on the big stage and to sample those mouth-watering ribs!

Ribfest volunteers must be 14 year of age or older. For secondary school students, Ribfest volunteer hours are eligible to be counted towards your 40 hours of community service. Volunteers are needed to fill the following positions:

Ribfest greeters provide a warm welcome to all inbound Ribfest fans as well as answer any questions they might have. A short training session is held prior to each volunteer shift.

 

Cleaning and maintenance assistants help keep the entire Ribfest venue sparkling clean. Specific duties include clearing, wiping down tables and chairs, maintaining cleanliness at water stations and litter control.
