Volunteers and Marshalls Needed

The Beltane Festival has come round again and preparations are well underway. We are all looking forward to hopefully a sunny, bright and safe Beltane Festival.

Our committee is extremely dedicated and hard working and putting on these events also means at times we get stretched and we need to rely on the great volunteers we have in our community.

Are you able to help as a volunteer and/or marshal support?

We particularly need support for the Wednesday, Thursday, and the Saturday Grand Parade.

We want to ensure we can put on ‘the‘ greatest festival in the Borders – but we can’t do this without help.

If you can spare some time please DM our Facebook page or submit a message from the Contact page and we will share the WhatsApp group link where you can let us know when you can volunteer/marshall.

Thank you!
