Volunteering


Hello!
This is a posting for a special opportunity to get involved and BUSY for one day in May… well, technically two days since some of you have already signed up for Stone Soup! Woohoo!
On May 1st, Sunday, join 100 people as we give the Britannia Oval a new facelift! Think Extreme Oval Makeover!
From 9am-3pm, 100 people will be on-site to repaint the mural facing the Britannia Oval AND create a new mural for our soccer container right outside the Britannia Secondary Cafeteria! But hang on folks, that's not all! We're also going to be building benches and painting them… woo hoo!
70 volunteers from Risk Insurance Management Society (RIMS) will be there to give back to the community by providing the paint and labour, but they'll need help in getting organized and that's where you come in!
We're looking for 16 active, enthusiastic, outgoing and friendly volunteers with the can-do attitude! You'll be helping with set-up, operations, registration, food service, clean-up and more!
If any of this sounds like, "YEAH! This is so me!", please let me know.
Shifts are 8am-1pm or 11am-4pm. We have limited spots, so sign up quick before we open this up to the larger community!
(Light refreshments and lunch provided. Statements of hours too if requested at the end of your shift!)
To volunteer, please pick your shift and email me directly with your full name, contact number and email address!
See you all soon!
