************************************************************
Quilt Show Volunteer!
It takes two volunteers to be in charge of the 2026 North Idaho Quilt Show, fifteen other volunteers to organize registration, advertising, collections, set-up and take-down, not to mention round up the Vendors and turn the lights on! And it takes an entire guild of volunteers to help run the show!
We invite you to support your North Idaho Quilt Guild by volunteering for a shift or two during our show on May 1 and 2.
We have volunteer opportunities for everyone...
