The Adam's River in the Roderick Haig-Brown Park will attract up to 250,000 people during the 3 week Festival.

  Aide

  Volunteers are need to help set up and take down the Festival area. During the run, volunteers are needed to help with the parking - this has to be one of the most fun parking jobs. Volunteers have salmon cut outs to direct traffic so everyone wants their picture taken with you. Other jobs may include helping with the souvenir tent or just being an event ambassador of the event.
