Mill Neck Manor Fall Harvest Festival Volunteer
On Saturday and Sunday of Columbus Day Weekend each year, hundreds of volunteers help us to operate our Annual Fall Harvest Festival. Without the time and talents of our faithful volunteer workers, this event would never be possible. This year, the Festival will be held on October 10 & 11, 2009 from 9 am to 5 pm.

Thank you so much for your interest in volunteering at our Fall Harvest Festival. At this time, our volunteer opportunities for the 2009 festival are filled. Please check back next year in July if you would like to volunteer in 2010. Thanks again!

Volunteer at Other Events
Volunteers are always needed at other fundraising events, such as our Spring Swing Golf Tournament and Casino Royale. If you are interested in volunteering at one of these events, please contact involve@millneck.org.
