Help wanted

Liberty Festival volunteers sought

Organizers of the Canton Liberty Fest are seeking volunteers to help with the event. The festival will return June 16, 17 and 18 after a two-year hiatus due to the COVID pandemic.

The festival usually brings more than 50,000 visitors to Heritage Park and it takes a large cadre of volunteers to help ensure the smooth running of the event. Organizers said the success of the event is due to volunteers who support Canton. 

“Now more than ever we need volunteer support for this year's community festival. Plenty of exciting opportunities are available including: Welcome and Information Booth Greeters, Bike Corral assistants, Adult Beer and Wine Garden helpers, and many others,” organizers said.
