VOLUNTEERSCome be swept away with medieval magic by volunteering at the 35th Annual Hoggetowne Medieval Faire. The City of Gainesville Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs Department is now recruiting volunteers for the Faire. For three consecutive weekends, tucked away in the enchanted forest of the Alachua County Fairgrounds, a medieval marketplace comes to life as troupes of actors, street performers and musicians journey back to the days of yore. The success of the Faire depends heavily on the commitment of dedicated volunteers, and we need your help to make the Hoggetowne Medieval Faire as spectacular as ever as we expand the Faire to three weekends for the first time!
