Volunteers’ Call from Fall Heritage Festival
NEW volunteers are being recruited as Fall Heritage Festival gears up for its 2017 Festival. Volunteers are an essential part of bringing this FREE family-friendly event to Cowan.

The Festival Committee has several opportunities available for individuals willing to put in a few hours every week. As large as the Festival has become, we need as many hands as we can get!
Planning Meetings begin in March, and meet every 2 weeks for the first few months, then meet weekly leading into the Festival. Meetings are held at Cowan City Hall. (Please use the back door.)
Help plan our Festival. Learn what’s going on, and help spread the word. Read more »
