We hope you will help us make this magical evening of movement, music, art, nature, and delicious food, beer and wine a success in 2017. As a volunteer, you will get free admission to explore and enjoy the event on your shift breaks, receive a shift meal, and have the unique privilege of being part of the special behind the scenes crew that makes an event like this come to life.
The majority of the volunteer shifts are from 4-10pm on the day of, but we will also have a few pre- and post event shifts available. So that everyone is informed and we are one cohesive team, we are asking that volunteers also attend a group orientation in the late afternoon/early evening on Friday, April 21st .
Volunteer roles at the event include assistance with parking, registration, crowd control, food and beverage service, ticket sales, facepainting, arts and crafts, childcare, recycling/compost/landfill stations, and more. Duties will be assigned depending on our needs, and the volunteer's skills and availability.

Mission Statement
With a mission of connecting children and families to nature through farm-based education, Connolly Ranch aims to encourage the next generation of environmental stewards. At Connolly Ranch, kids and families learn about farm life, the role of animals, ecology, sustainability, and an appreciation for nature. We teach organic gardening, the sources and benefits of healthy foods and knowledge of how nature works to sustain us.
Description
Connolly Ranch supports a diverse community with more than 9,000 people visiting each year through field trips, family classes, events, early childhood programs, seasonal camps and open farm days.
Peggy Connolly’s generous donation allows Connolly Ranch to serve 70 percent of students in the Napa Valley Unified School District. In her will, Connolly donated the property to the Land Trust of Napa County in order to preserve the 13-acre farm from encroaching development. Since 1991, Connolly Ranch has served the Napa Valley as a unique educational center providing hands-on experiences for children of all ages.
