Ride share for volunteers

I've had several people asking about rides to Rothbury. It might be a good idea to start a ride share for volunteers in your area. You can comment on this post to say if your interested and get in touch with others who are.

Volunteer Deposits

This year for Rothbury volunteers, we need a $50 deposit to hold your name on the list. This will be returned to you as soon as you complete your work at the show. If you want to work, you have to pay the deposit. That's the only way we can ensure our volunteer list is good.

Send your money orders (no checks) with your name and email address to

Nomad Supply
200 Fern St.
Birmingham, AL 35210

Last year I had several emails asking if this was some sort of scam. The answer is no. If you want to work you have to pay.

If you have any questions, ask me and I'll find you an answer. Please don't contact Kingdom Promotions or Rothbury.

rothbury festival

Hey there, Here is a little info for you if you're just finding out about volunteering with us at Rothbury. My name is Beau, I'm with Nomad Supply. I'm working for Kingdom Promotions, which is the staffing company that has been contracted to organize the tollbooth workers for Rothbury this year. Working the tollbooths means that we'll be greeting folks and scanning tickets at the front gate of the festival. I don't have all of the details yet, but based on last year, I would say that everyone will be required to work two 12 hour shifts in exchange for a weekend pass. We're going to try to have everyone done working by 6pm Friday night. That's not a promise, but a hope. If you haven't spoken with me yet and would like to get on the list, please email me at nomadsupply@gmail.com. I'll need your name, email address and cell phone number (for contact at the show).

PLEASE do not contact Rothbury or Kingdom Promotions. They have asked me to make it clear to you that they do not want you to contact them about the tollbooth work. That's why they have me. If you have any questions, please ask me. If I don't know the answer, I'll find it out for you.

I had a great time last year and I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of you again this year!
