About This Opportunity
Parkinson Association of Alberta invites you to volunteer with us on September 20th at our 14th annual Step ‘n Stride charity fundraiser! This signature event brings together members of the community all across Alberta as we walk as one, to raise funds for Parkinson disease treatment.
We have a variety of roles and opportunities! We will work with you to find a good fit among our volunteer roles.
Volunteer Positions:
Event Set-up
Set up banners/signage, set up registration/volunteer areas, food and beverage areas, place route markers on the course and assist the staff with equipment arrangement (tables/chairs etc). Volunteers need to be comfortable with physical labour and lifting heavier objects!
First Aid
Be onsight for our out door Parkinson Step ‘n Stride, to provide standard first aid treatment for injuries not considered serious, which may include cleaning injured areas and applying antiseptic, salves, ointments, or bandages.
Registration/Check In
This is where all teams/individuals must first stop so they can confirm their arrival and drop off their offline pledges. This is also the first stop for spectators wishing to register. Volunteers at this area must be excellent communicators, organized and energized to greet our teams and spectators!
Parking/Access Patrol
Assist with directing vendors to designated event areas and ensure all vehicles using event areas are obeying the rules of the pathways. You will have a list to check off names using event list provided. You will need access patrol in front and behind the vehicles on pathways. Blinkers on and do not exceed 5 to 10km
Kids Zone
Lots of fun! There are lawn games to play. Help engage our children and youth in this space!
Food and Beverage
This is where the gathering happens! Assist our food and beverages sponsor with keeping the park as clean as we found it.
Route Marshals
The Route Marshals will be stationed at the start/finish lines and 1km, 3km and 5km turn-around points to help with directing teams, ensuring the safety of all participants and cheering them on!
