History:
As a student project, the multifaceted festival concept is original in the state of Oregon. The festival idea was conceived by the 1995 Hospitality, Tourism and Recreation class has been implemented by students with increasing annual success. Students not only develop business, academic and personal skills, they also develop social awareness. Working side-by-side with adult volunteers teaches them the importance of volunteerism and seeing hundreds of visitors enjoy an agriculture-related event increases their pride in their community and rural background. Continuing and expanding local support for a project initially developed by students give all students confirmation of their worth as citizens and innovators in the community.

Volunteer Information:
Thank you for your interest in volunteering for the annual Daffodil Festival! Quite simply, without the numerous generous volunteers, the festival would fail to exist. There are many different aspects of the festival that require volunteers. These areas include, but are not limited to, food and dining, nursery, art show, Volkswalk, sales, shuttles, parking, and Daffodil Show.
This year the festival will be held April 4 through April 5, 2009. For
more information please contact us through our email at Daffodil@Amity.k12.or.us.
