7/25/14 - "Melonteers" are needed for the Howell Melon Festival and organizers say there's a job for everyone. Melonfest will take place August 15th through the 17th in downtown Howell. Organizers say they rely on the generosity of time and knowledge that volunteers bring to the table and there are a number of ways to help out. Opportunities range from cutting melons or answering phones to set-up or tear-down, chalking the streets for vendors, acting as crossing guards at major intersections or as a security guard. A mandatory volunteer meeting is scheduled at 6pm Wednesday, August 13th at the Bennett Recreation Center on West Grand River. Official "Melonteer" t-shirts will be handed out at the meeting and responsibilities and roles assigned. There will also be snacks and door prizes for those who attend. A volunteer application is available for download through the link below. (JM)
