The Chautauqua Lake Pops Volunteers


An Economic Impact Beyond Dollars:  Volunteerism

While volunteers may not have an economic impact as defined in a study they clearly have had an enormous impact by helping the Pops Concert Series through the years functioning as a viable cultural organization.  Volunteers provide a significant contribution.  During the 2012 Bemus Bay Pops concert series a group of volunteers donated a total of 1,800 hours!  



"What a great 2019 summer at the Pops!  Everyone was so nice! They loved the Fisherman Chips.  The flavor is out of this world!"

"Volunteering at the Chautauqua Lake Pops in Mayville afforded me the opportunity to connect with people from around the county and beyond.  I enjoyed seeing familiar faces and making new friends while being able to enjoy exciting shows on beautiful Chautauqua Lake.  I was happy to be a part of this wonderful memory and look forward to more Pops seasons!"

"Dan did me the favor when he asked me to be a Pops volunteer.  I think the world of the Dalpra family, the Ferguson family and all of my fellow Pops volunteers.   I have made so many nice new friends such as the Lockes.  I love all kinds of music and being around folks who make music.  I have always wanted to wrap my arms around something and enjoy it.  Thanks to the Pops I found that something."
