 A minimum of 15 hours of service is required for all information
booth, building and Illinois State Fair Museum volunteers. However,
additional hours may be requested. "Farmer’s Little Helpers"
volunteers can chose from 9:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. shifts or 2:15
p.m.-7:15 p.m. shifts.
"The Illinois State Fair draws nearly three-quarters of a million
people to the fairgrounds in Springfield each year," said Amy
Bliefnick, state fair manager. "The men and women who donate their
time to the fair are a big part of its success."
All volunteers will receive a free 2010 Illinois State Fair
T-shirt, plus complimentary admission and parking.
Applications can be obtained by visiting
www.illinoisstatefair.info. There will be a training workshop
for applicants on Aug. 8 at 1 p.m. in the Emmerson Building.
For additional information, call 217-782-0777. The Illinois State
Fair will be Aug. 13-22.
