Mount Forest is just two months away from its Homecoming celebrations.
Wellington North council has declared May 19 to June 17 as "Beautify Mount Forest Month" in preparation for the Homecoming June 21 to 25.
Homecoming Chair Rich MacVicar says they could still use more volunteers for the five-day event, for duties such as ticket sales, servers and parking.
A new Mount Forest history book recently went on sale in connection with the Homecoming.
