This year the San Diego County Fair at Del Mar will run from June 11 – July 6, 2025.
Each year over 2,500 children and adults hear the gospel in our CEF Story Castle!
Many volunteers are needed to staff the Story Castle for the duration of the fair. CEF provides training, T-shirts and free admission for groups of 3 volunteers serving in 4-hour shifts. Outside of their shifts, volunteers are free to enjoy the fair!
After you submit your registration, you may sign up for your shift(s). Below are the two steps to do so.
(1) Go to the Google Doc (click here) to view what slots are Open / Closed.
Pick out two dates, one as an alternative date.
(2) After you know which open shift(s) you would like, call (760) 410-8484 (Ferdinand) to reserve your spot. We will then send you a link to our Fair Orientation video.
The Orientation video will take about 30 minutes long to watch and is required in order to serve at the Castle.
When you leave a voicemail, please include your full name, phone number, and desired shift(s).
Note: On the first day you serve, you will need to pay for parking. For any subsequent days, our chapter will reimburse you for your parking cost. Thank you if you can serve multiple days!
Remember to sign up for your shift(s) as soon as possible, to secure your desired dates and times!
If you are unable to serve in the Story Castle but would like to donate toward the fair ministry, please visit our donation page (be sure to put Fair Ministry on the memo line of your check, or select it from the dropdown menu on the online giving form).
