How to help with BunkFest 2006

BunkFest is now firmly established as a leading event on the nationwide folk and roots music scene, with fabulous concerts, dance displays, ceilidhs, sessions, workshops, a huge craft and trader fair, arts for young people, an enormous beer festival, music on the river and a singing train. It is also a major event for the benefit of the town and surrounding villages. Now we're doing it all again - BunkFest 2006 will be bigger and even better!

The work involved in setting up a festival is tremendous, so a group was formed called the Friends of Wallingford BunkFest. The idea is that we enlist the services of willing people to help out with the enormous number of jobs that need to be done before, during and after the Festival. Helpers can spend as much or as little time as they wish in Festival jobs, leaving as much time as they desire to go to events. Here's a list of typical jobs:
