Volunteers Needed for Celebrate St. Peters 2012

Celebrate St. Peters 2012 is shaping up to be one of our community’s biggest events ever. And, we can’t do it without our volunteers.

This year’s Celebrate St. Peters festivities will take place at 370 Lakeside Park on Friday, Sept. 14, and Saturday, Sept. 15; plus, the St. Peters Rec-Plex is offering a Celebrate St. Peters Race Around the Lake 10K & Let’s Move! Back-to-School Fun Run/Walk on Sunday morning, Sept. 16.

We’re looking for Celebrate St. Peters volunteers to help staff bounce houses and an obstacle course, and direct traffic for parking during the event.

This year at Celebrate St. Peters, we're planning plenty of music, food and drinks, carnival rides and games, fireworks along the lake, kids’ activities and more. Ten bands will play on three stages over the two days. The Smash Band will bring the party on Friday night. KSHE will present headliner bands Poco and Pure Prairie League on Saturday evening. Fireworks are planned for Saturday at about 9:15 p.m.

Free parking will be available on site at 370 Lakeside Park, and a free shuttle will be available from the parking areas to the festival areas. Admission for the event is also free.
