Join us for a rad evening under the stars at SK8 Flix Cinema in the Park, featuring a lineup of gnarly skateboarding shorts!
About the role:
Our event aims to unite people, encourage social interaction, and foster community bonding, all essential for building a sense of belonging and unity. Volunteers play a significant role in making events like this memorable for our community.
Volunteers will help us with event setup and tear down, serving popcorn and drinks, or managing a snack station. We'll hook you up with some dinner to keep your energy up. Plus you'll get to watch the epic shorts during the event - talk about a rad bonus!
This is the perfect opportunity for skateboarding enthusiasts, anyone looking to gain experience in event management and community service, families and friends wanting to volunteer together, and high school students needing volunteer hours. For new volunteers, this is an easy way to get started on your volunteer journey!
