Help keep the Fair grounds clean and fun while earning a FREE Ride Bracelet at the Columbia County Fair & Rodeo!

Seeking volunteers, ages 12–17, to sign up for one 4-hour Garbage & Recycling Crew shift and receive one Ride Bracelet after completing their shift. Duties include picking up garbage, sorting recycling, and helping keep the fairgrounds clean for everyone to enjoy.

The cans and bottles collected are donated to the local food bank to help support our community. Last year, recycling efforts raised over $1,550 for the Local Food Bank! Recycling also helps reduce Fair costs and keeps more waste out of the landfill.

Please review the available shifts and click the button to sign up.

Thank you for volunteering and helping make the Columbia County Fair & Rodeo a success!
