- Is there a secure area where I can keep my purse or bag? There is limited space in our volunteer command post. Even though the volunteer command post is always attended by volunteers and committee members, we cannot guarantee it's safety 100%.

There is limited parking available however it fills up quickly (we recommend getting there really early to get a spot) so bussing would be your best bet!

Excellent question....there's plenty of knowledgable folks at the volunteer command center to help you out.

Absolutely! The more friends you bring to orientation the better. We are always looking to recruit volunteers!
Back to Top
- Can I bring a friend the day of the CHEO BBQ?
Friends are always welcome! If they're not registered as a volunteer, they just need to stop by the main gate to pay the 5 bucks admission.
Due to the hectic nature of the event day, we are only accepted volunteers who have registered prior to the event.

voluteers during the event?
Volunteers get one lunch voucher which includes a sandwich and drink. Water is also available at no cost throughout the day to volunteers. Additional food & beverages other than water may be purchased.
