Volunteers

There’s A LOT that goes into making Friendship Days fun for the entire community. A number of volunteers from the area spend time, energy, and money to make this a success. Interested in volunteering at Friendship Days this year? Contact a member of the American Legion to find out where you can help!

 Do you have suggestions or ideas for next year? We’d love to hear from you! The best way to make changes is to get involved. To learn when the committee meetings begin, message us on Facebook!
