There are still shifts available for our volunteer day with Hamline Dining Hall!

We are excited to share that we are again a partner with Hamline Church Dining Hall this year, receiving a portion of the proceeds from their sales throughout the MN State Fair!

Like last year, we are having a special volunteer day for staff and community members to volunteer at the Dining Hall and connect with the people, both volunteers and customers, who make this special partnership so impactful. Our Volunteer Day will be Friday, 8/28, the second day of the fair!

To volunteer with us, use this link: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/409084EABAA28A6F58-64553786-hamline #/ #%2F to see available shifts. Make sure the left side of the table says "08/28/2026, Friday" so that you're signing up for the right day. If a shift says it is full, but the person signed up is "Hamline Dining Hall/Emma Norton" please email our Volunteer Coordinator Mo Mayberry at [email protected] to claim that shift!
