CF is an official sponsor of Florida SpringsFest 2024 and we need your help!

We are looking for volunteers to work two-hour shifts Saturday and Sunday, March 2-3, 10 a.m.-4 p.m. The first shift is Saturday at 8 a.m. to set up. The last shift Sunday will help with take-down. There are several tables to assist with: one for CF’s Tree Campus information, and 1-2 tables for the hands-on activities for children like tree planting and tree giveaways.

Please contact Elaine Amesbury at amesbure@cf.edu or ext. 1626 before Thursday, Feb. 29 to allow for confirmation of shifts Friday, March 1. Volunteers do not have to pay the admission charge but can enjoy the festivities after they finish their shift.
