The mission of the Campbell Culture Coalition is to enhance the economic and cultural opportunities of the citizenry, preserve the culturally significant past, and support the cultural talents of our youth who are our future.

We currently needs volunteers for our annual Louie Bluie Festival. The Louie Bluie Festival is an annual local celebration at Cove Lake State Park in Campbell County that features three tents of Americana music, local juried craft venders and art and quilt displays, which takes place the last Saturday of September. This one day festival is entirely staffed by volunteers - it takes about 150 volunteers to staff many venues - entrance gates, parking, festival store, kids fun zone activities, food court, art pavilion displays, and other volunteer possibilities.

We plan to bring back the Louie Bluie Music & Arts Festival in late September, 2022, and will have other youth programs that need volunteers ongoing.

We may also need volunteers for other events or tasks. Please contact us for details.

Caris Healthcare Volunteers make a difference in the lives of Hospice patients and families. Caris needs volunteers in the following areas:

1) Patient companionship volunteers: provide support in the patient/family at the end of someone's life (people on hospice can live for days and even months) by reading and writing letters for the patient, help with Legacy projects such as scrapbooking or sitting quietly holding someone's hand.

2) Administrative volunteers: work in the local Caris office completing tasks such as filing, making and answering phone calls, or other business administrative task.

3) Special project volunteers: use your own talents and hobbies to benefit the patients and their families without committing to patient and family contact. For example: Threads of Grace Volunteers make blankets, stuffed animals and other items for comfort of the patient; Youth and Children's groups make crafts or provide acts of service in community such as mowing lawns; clowning or singing groups, memorial services, and health fairs.
