Sun 'n Fun President and convention chairman John Burton says there is no way an event the size of Sun 'n Fun could happen each year without the 2,500 dedicated volunteers. With the 30th SnF behind them, organizers are already planning for number 31, and you should be, too. The dates to write on your 2005 calendar are April 12-18.
