Volunteer

Paddlefest is only possible thanks to an amazing team of 200+ volunteers who donate their time and talents throughout the event weekend. Whether you’re an individual or a part or a corporate group, you can make a huge impact on Paddlefest. We have volunteer options during the Outdoors for All Expo, our Friday night Paddlefest pre-party, as well as during Saturday’s paddle.

Volunteer sign-ups for the 2025 Outdoors for All Expo and Ohio River Paddlefest will be posted in the spring.

Note: If you’re interested in volunteering as a safety paddler, please email safety@ohioriverpaddlefest.org.
