Lloyd Ex In Need of Year-Round Volunteers

The Lloyd Ex is on the hunt for volunteers.

Volunteer turnout has been declining over the past couple of years, and while some volunteers are aging out of the role, attracting new volunteers continues to be a struggle for the non-profit based venue.

Stacy Sauvie, who has just begun her role as the Marketing Manager for Lloyd Ex says she already sees the value of volunteer participation at the Ex.

“Volunteers help the events go ’round.”  She adds, “It’s very much appreciated that they give their time.”

Positions range from ushers to ticket takers, drink tickets and even bartending.

The Lloyd Ex sees roughly 215,000 people come through the doors every year for everything from cattle shows to concerts, and of course, the annual Lloyd Ex fair.
