TUWC at Oktoberfest

TUWC at Linde Oktoberfest

Sign up today to be part of the TUWC Will Call Team!

Not only is Volunteering at Linde Oktoberfest a great way to give back to the Tulsa Community it is a great way to help fund your favorite non-profits! In addition to a host of other non-profits like the River Parks Authority the TUWC benefits from this festival! Last year, over $50,000 was raised by groups working during Oktoberfest, which goes directly back into the community! 

Why volunteer? 

The TUWC is paid per Volunteer hour. These funds go directly into our operating costs.

What do operating costs cover? Specifically insurance so we can continue to host trail work days.

What do volunteers do? We fill online packet pickup and check in guests. No money ever changes hands.

We are not serving beer. Actually we see people before they ever get near the beer. 

Students can volunteer as service hours and the TUWC will sign off.

MAKE PLANS NOW TO VOLUNTEER AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE! OKTOBER 16-20

Reserve Your Spot Today!

Help the TUWC raise funds and have a great time! Meet other members of the TUWC and become more involved!

Get involved with the Tulsa Urban Wilderness Coalition and Tulsa’s favorite fall festival!
