  • Cheat Fest 2019 – Looking for Volunteer Leaders!

    Cheat Fest is truly a community effort – so many river lovers come out to make the festival magic happen. Now in our 25th year (Can you believe it!?!?) we are looking to invite several more folks who are looking to dig deeper into the fest. Right now, we are looking to fill openings for Lead Volunteer Coordinators as well as leadership and assistant positions before, during and after the fest. Below are some of the areas where we are looking for committed volunteer help and where you can really impact the festival!  If you’re interested in joining the team, please contact the Festival Director at Cheatfest@Cheat.org to see if one of these positions is a fit good for you!

    5K Coordinator
    Pre-Festival Vendor Coordinator
    Volunteer Café Coordinator
    Education Eddy Coordinator
    Gate Managers (Day Of Position)
    Volunteer Leader (Day Of Position)
    Pre-Festival Office Assistants

  • Volunteer For Cheat Fest

    Want to get into Cheat Fest for free? Camp on the festival grounds? Enjoy deliciously free food and beverages? Support Friends of the Cheat and help make this year’s festival the best yet? Are you reliable? Great! It sounds like you might make a good volunteer!

    Volunteer shifts are 4 hours long, and cover all sorts of different jobs – from keeping the fest site clean (aka picking up garbage) to selling tickets at the front gate to helping time the down river race. If you’re interested, contact the volunteer coordinator Kelli Geswein at kelligeswein@hotmail.com.

    We also have opportunities for volunteers who want to complete their job before the festival.
