Volunteer for Mile 6!

Music lover? Check.
Hard-working? Check.
Fun and energetic? Check.

If you can “check” all of those boxes, we’ve got our eyes on YOU to become a volunteer for Mile 6 (Mile of Music 2018)! Our sign-up page is officially open, and you can register to volunteer for Mile 6 HERE!

In just two months, 200 artists will be in Downtown Appleton to play 900 sets spanning across 70 venues over four whole days (August 2-5)! We can’t believe another Mile of Music is coming up so quickly.

Before you sign up to volunteer, we have a few pieces of new information and some ‘housekeeping’ updates we’d like to share!

NEW FOR 2018:

• Country Financial has hopped on the bandwagon to help us up our volunteer game for 2018! Thanks to their support, you’ll receive a quality volunteer t-shirt (we know you love them!), a special volunteer identification badge to be worn during your shift, a post-festival concert exclusive to volunteers AND more perks to be announced! Thank you to Country Financial for supporting the music (and volunteer) movement at Mile of Music.
• Due to reported issues in 2017, drinking alcohol is not tolerated during Mile of Music volunteer shifts. Shifts have been shortened to accommodate this.
• We will now be holding an online volunteer orientation via Facebook Live in addition to our in-person orientation! This will allow you to ask questions online, view an archived video after the orientation and more!
• We have also created a Facebook group exclusively for volunteers! Click here to apply to join! We will not accept your request until you have signed up to volunteer.
• The in-person volunteer orientation will be held on July 24 from 6:30-7:30 p.m. at the Red Lion Hotel Paper Valley. All volunteer orientations (in-person and online) will include Q&A time, information from the Appleton Police Department, and more! These are not mandatory, but encouraged, especially for new volunteers!
• Thanks to great feedback from our volunteers, most shifts have been shortened to 3-4 hours in length!
• You must register by Friday, June 29 to guarantee a t-shirt in your preferred size! 

Spread the word! Encourage your family, friends and colleagues to sign up and volunteer with you! If you’re interested in a particular position/shift, we recommend signing up ASAP! Once a shift is filled, it will disappear.
