Important News!
For our 2017
Pride Parade
and
Pride On Riverwalk
events on June 17th, we have already held two volunteer orientation sessions and we will be holding our third and final session next Sunday 11th June at 6pm. This will be located at the Newmarket Community Centre on Riverwalk Commmons.
If you would like to volunteer for these events, please register as a volunteer and attend the orientation session on Sunday. For the majority of our volunteer positions, volunteers must attend one of our orientation sessions. Event Volunteers
A week or so before Pride Week we run a number of informal training and orientation sessions (with free food and drink) and each event volunteer must attend one of these evening events. These provide an ideal opportunity for our volunteers to get to know each other. At the same time, we share details of our event plans, volunteer roles, some of our policies and important safety information. Lastly, we assign volunteers to individual roles according to their preferences.
Other than participating in this training and undertaking the roles assigned to them during our event, no additional commitment is expected of an event volunteer.
