2014 Folklife Festival Approacheth, Seeks Volunteers

Good people of HumCo! We’re about a month out from this year’s weeklong Humboldt Folklife Festival and organizers are wondering if local music-loving ears might have hands and backs attached. Specifically, they're looking for volunteers to help out in various capacities at multiple events in mid-July. If that’s the kind of community you dig on, get a hold of Anne at anne.g.kinne@gmail.com or 616-1546 and/or attend a pizza-enhanced meeting occurring at Mad River Brewery next Monday, June 30 at 6 p.m.

As far as Tuesday is concerned, while the Humboldt Crabs are taking a week to dominate elsewhere, the Arcata Ball Park will still feature fly balls courtesy of the Humboldt B-52s. Starting tonight, our other local baseball team will enjoy nearly a whole week of playing for peanut-chomping crowds on the big boy field.

Go cheer 'em, you.
