Floral Float Decorator
- Volunteer Program
You can join in on the fun of putting
real plants, dried materials and flowers on floral floats for any time
in the 5 days before the August 25th Grand Floral Parade, or on days to suit you in earlier summer weeks. No experience is needed in working
with flowers. School students from 13 years and up, and all adults
are welcome (1000+ volunteers are needed).
Phone Program
You will call other volunteers and festival
participants on behalf of all volunteer programs with times, dates of meetings,
and more. You can take part in office activities by answering phones,
or by using your home phone.
Recycling Program
You can help keep Surrey
clean while you take part in recycling the parade and festival goers' leftover
papers, bottles, cans and more. Participant volunteers can hand out
recycling bags along the parade route. You can join the end of the
parade by picking up the parade goers' filled recycling bags and giving
them to the recycling and garbage trucks that follow directly behind the
last band and float entries.
Parade Volunteer Program
You will work with parade timing needs,
and with media such as television, in helping to make sure parade participants
are moving on time to match pre-planned production and direction operations.
Phones, walkie talkies and ham radio operators will be used to team up
leaders coordinating with the Parade Head. You are invited to do
other parade activities to help present a quality parade as well.
Volunteers, please apply by phone, letter
or fax
to the below listed numbers, not by Email.
