The Fort Vancouver National Trust is seeking 300 volunteers to help out during Vancouver’s July 4 celebration.
In 2012, more than 250 volunteers helped at the event — known formally as Independence Day at Fort Vancouver presented by Bank of America — which was attended by more than 35,000 people.
Individuals, service organizations and corporate groups all can volunteer to sell and collect tickets, work at an information booth, serve water at a water wagon, or work at a parking lot or in the adult beverage pavilion.
Applications are at http://fortvan.org/fourth. Volunteers may request certain jobs and shifts, although the trust may not be able to accommodate all requests.
