The Linton Music Festival

Call out for volunteers

The Linton Community Development Corporation is seeking volunteers to assist with the 2011 Linton Music Festival being held in Humphreys Park in Linton, Indiana on September 2nd, 3rd, and 4th.  As the festival continues to grow it needs more energetic, friendly people to ensure its success.  Volunteers are asked to work one or more four-hour shifts, which will allow for plenty of free time to enjoy the festival before and/or after each shift.  Volunteer positions available include stage crew, hospitality attendant, camera operator, and parking attendant.  For a complete list of available positions, corresponding job descriptions, and additional information please click here.

Linton Rotary Club to host bike ride in conjunction with LMF

 

Pedal a little harder, push a little further.
Leave a little sweatier, and become part of something greater.

Ride with Rotary to eradicate polio from the planet and supply worthy high school students with scholarships for college.

A great cause and great scenery come together for this beautiful fall ride, starting at Linton’s Humphreys Park and rolling by the Goose Pond area (the number one location for migratory birds in Indiana), as well as river crossings, the Richland-Plummer Creek covered bridge, and some challenging hills for the more adventurous.

The shorter 25 mile tour will ride through the Goose Pond area and track through a portion of the Greene-Sullivan State Forrest.

Each ride has SAG stops with free snacks and drinks.

At the end of your scenic ride through Greene County, please join us for free refreshments.
