Country Financial Helps to Make Volunteer Program Happen for Mile 6!

In case you missed it, registration is officially open to volunteer for the sixth Mile of Music festival in Downtown Appleton in early August. A variety of positions, from Beverage Sales to Artist/Venue Support, are open to anyone interested in helping to make the music happen. Positions are open to all ages, unless otherwise noted. Mile of Music’s goal for 2018 is to fill more than 1,000 total shifts during Mile Week, July 30-August 5. COUNTRY Financial® is sponsoring this year’s volunteer efforts and will assist Mile of Music in providing a quality experience for 2018 volunteers.

“With the 2018 lineup set, we’ve had lots of eager fans asking how they can help stage another strong fest this August. Volunteering is the best way to both enjoy the festival while helping the Mile of Music Team be everywhere we need to be,” said Kim Willems, a coordinator with the festival.

“One of COUNTRY Financial’s core values is to give back to the communities in which we live and do business. That encompasses volunteering our time to support great things happening in our communities. We are proud to help Mile of Music provide a bigger, better volunteer experience for Mile 6,” said Travis Streck, Agency Manager for COUNTRY Financial’s Fox Valley/Central Wisconsin Region®, “Supporting the hundreds of community members that help to make this community-focused event a great one year after year is a perfect fit for COUNTRY Financial® and what we believe in.”

“Each year we strive to make the volunteer experience better and having COUNTRY Financial® on board to help in all aspects is a big assist,” Willems said.

In all, 400-plus volunteers are needed for Mile 6. Interested volunteers can head to mileofmusic.com/volunteer for full details.
