You can raise money for The River Food Pantry by volunteering at the World’s Largest Brat Fest this Memorial Day Weekend at Willow Island at the Alliant Energy Center!
When you sign up to volunteer and select ‘The River Food Pantry’ as your charity to support, $12 for every hour you volunteer will be donated to The River—South Central Wisconsin’s busiest food pantry! As a volunteer, you also receive a Brat Fest t-shirt, a free scoop of Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream, and your choice of brat, hot dog, corn, or soda. Plus, you get to enjoy the festival before or after your shift(s)!
What do Brat Fest volunteers do? Grill, cashier, wrap, stock condiments, make sure the event grounds are clean, tear down, etc. The festival runs May 24–26. Shifts range from 2.5–4.5 hours and are available to help before, during, and after the event. Sign-up is first come first serve. Volunteers must be at least 14 years old.
