County Fair Booth Staffing

We need volunteers to staff our booth during the fair. It's easy work and lots of fun. We have one-day fair passes for our volunteers who need them, or the Party can reimburse you. We ask that all volunteers wear business casual attire, which means a collared shirt and khakis or neat jeans. No candidate shirts, hats, buttons or other candidate attire are permitted. When you are staffing our booth, you are representing the Democratic Party of McHenry County.

If the shifts we have listed don't fit your schedule, just let us know and we can work something out. Thanks!

The County Fair celebrates our local farmers and the foods they produce. Walk through the barns where you can learn about beef, dairy, swine and poultry. Visit the gardens where you can see, learn, and hear from Master Gardeners about growing your own vegetables. Meet some of the farmers who produce your food. Learn about the history of farming in McHenry County. And then, sample some local food.  For more information visit the County Fair website.

…and just to be clear, we do not support the Fair's choice of Ted Nugent to headline the Saturday evening show. Our goal is to educate the public that the Democratic Party of McHenry County supports family values. Misogyny, hatred and bigotry have no place in our community. Some have suggested we boycott the fair, but our absence would be noticed by no one, and our place would be filled by another group who may not share our principles. It is important for us to be there to make sure that America's heritage of liberty and justice for all is represented and defended.
