Festival volunteers are highly valued and play an integral part in supporting Festival staff in the delivery and operations of the region’s hallmark event.
“Joining our wonderful volunteer team is a tangible way to support local tourism and the community,” said Narooma Oyster Festival Volunteer Coordinator, Cass Bendixsen.
Festival volunteers receive a Festival ticket and T-shirt and are encouraged to have fun, help visitors enjoy the Eurobodalla region when it’s at its best, and help the local economy bounce back post bushfires and Covid-19.
