Review for Finger Lakes Grassroots Festival Organization Inc, Trumansburg, NY, USA
I first volunteered for the GrassRoots Festival when I was 15 and attended the Finger Lakes GrassRoots Festival for the second time that summer. I had attended the year before but had purchased a ticket. The event was amazing, music from all over the world, dancing all night, kids running around having a blast, amazing food of all kinds...a super welcoming environment boasting freedom and creativity, a place to open and relax.
Volunteering for my ticket was a whole new experience, it connected us with the people putting on the event and with the event itself in a whole new way. It truly does build community. And it donates profits to local and global not-for-profits ranging from Doctors without Borders to the local library, historic theatre and soccer team among many others.
I very much recommend volunteering for your ticket if you have the time, you'll likely learn skills you don't have and meet new friends for sure!
