Meltfest - 4th Annual Family Festival

4TH Annual Rockford MELTFEST

​Saturday March 25th - Central Location @ Prairie Street Brewhouse

MELTFEST is an event designed to celebrate the melting away of winter (it is held the first Saturday in spring) as well as the melting together of the community. This year, the Rockford IceHogs have joined forces with this great event in downtown Rockford!  The center of the event is at the Prairie Street Brewhouse; however, parts of the event reach north to the YMCA and south to the UW Health Sports Factory.
 

The majority of the day is offered free of charge to participants and the event has a little bit of something for everyone.  Activities include:

5k run / walk, a kids run, group bike ride, ice skating, trolley rides, live music, huge assortment of kids activities, magic show, mascots, food and market vendors, and more.  

We are the Benefactor of this event and need 15-20 volunteers for Entrance Greeters throughout the day.  There are three entrances needing 1-2 friendly faces to welcome attendees and hand out programs. Each shift is only 2 hours.  Please see the Volunteer Sign Up section for this event.

Time Slots needed include:  

8:30 - 10:00 a.m.

10 a.m. - noon
