First Post of 2013

...or Brrr, is June really just around the corner?

It's February in Ottawa, and cold as h-e-double hockey sticks (so says the girl who grew up in Vancouver BC).  Hence, it is hard to believe that Westfest 2013, the 10th year anniversary edition, is only 4 months away!

As is typical for me this time of year, I don't know much about anything:

• Westfest 2013 will be 4 days: June 6 - 9, 2013
• All the stage acts are fully booked, but don't ask me who they are, I will find out at the Media Launch like everyone else
• We always need more Volunteers, but I don't yet know for what :-)
• I do know that Volunteers would be very welcome at the Westfest office for pre-festival assistance.  Feel free to call Claudia (Westfest General Manager) at 613-729-3565 if you can assist with weekday office or promotion work.

All previous volunteers are still in my database, so don't worry, I'll be reaching out to you a couple of months before the festival to see if you will be joining us again.

For any new volunteers out there, please fill out Form #1: New Volunteer Application which is always available in the RELATED AND MORE OFFICIAL LINKS section on the top right of this page, and I'll be sure to include you in the volunteer communications as well.

Hope everyone is having a great winter, and we'll be in touch soon!
