Maifest Volunteering

Lieber Freund

Spring is coming one way or another - and with it comes Maifest!

One weekend, six hours of your time, one fantastic fundraiser: the DANK Haus German American Cultural Center is part of Maifest Chicago 30 May - 2 Jun 2013!

You want first dibs? You know you do! Maifest is the best festival in town, so kick off summer the right way! Sign up for a shift grilling brats, stacking mugs, or building the bar. You'll love it! And you will be helping to raise funds for language and cultural programming. Everybody wins!
