VOLUNTEERS

Our pavilion is run and organised by our Instructors, MSDSA Board members, dancers, parents, and friends of the organisation.  It's an incredible amount of work for those who chair the various areas of the pavilion (Coordinator, Finance, Food, Bar, Volunteers, Entertainment, Bus Tours & VIP's, Cultural Area, and more) For some, the work begins in September and becomes a full time job in the summer months coming up to the festival.  The pavilion requires 100 - 150 volunteers per night in order to run successfully and fulfil all the requirements from Folklorama. We cannot operate the pavilion without the support from our dancer's parents, family, and friends and we appreciate the work everyone does to help us sponsor one of the largest and most successful pavilions in the festival.  

• We ask all dancers to please provide at least 6 hours of volunteers from friends or family for each of the 7 nights of the festival.  

ARE YOU INTERESTED IN ORGANISING AN AREA OF THE PAVILION?  

We are still in need of several chairs to help run the various areas of the pavilion and we need YOUR help!  if you haven't already done so, please contact us to sign up.  We cannot proceed with the pavilion unless we have all departments chaired.  Thank you for your support.

Your support is greatly appreciated by our school, Student's Association, and our dancers.
