Hey! Volunteer – And Help The Fremont Chamber!
The last weekend of September is the Fremont Oktoberfest – one of the greatest beer festivals in the world! Seriously! The organizers, Bold Hat Productions, have the awards to prove it.
However, the festival depends upon the generosity of a huge cadre of volunteers – including you! Particularly on Saturday evening, September 24th, for the 7p – close (11:45p) shift. Fremont Oktoberfest needs pour-ers to get the beer out and keep the festival from having to shut down early.

At this year’s Fremont Oktoberfest, on September 23, 24 & 25, the tasting garden features over 80 microbrews, imports, and German beers.
