Market Day Management

Although not technically a part of any Committee, all Wimberley Lions are expected to help out in some way with our main fundraising endeavor, Wimberley Market Day. It's a monthly event on about 20 acres with almost 500 vendor booths, concessions, parking, hauling, community volunteers, and music. It takes between 100 and 150 volunteers on the day of the event to keep things running smoothly. There are many things to do not only on "the day of", but all month long. Thinking about how you can help? We have lots of options!
