Event Team
Who are we?
We are local youth and volunteers of Scouts Canada.
The Event Team plans and operates ('executes') this event. Most event team members are 'section representatives', a volunteer from each section committed to attending the event, while a few others offer their service regardless of whether they are associated with a committed section.
Some section representatives need to attend with their section, while others attend 'with the event'.
Youth are encouraged to take roles on the Event Team, including Co-Chair, and will receive adult support when doing so.
What do we do?
The Event Team holds 5 virtual meetings to plan the event, and one meeting afterward as celebration and review. See Key Dates for exact meeting dates. Members take on a role (with 1 or 2 others) to complete a particular task.
Team members with equipment duties gather equipment the evening before the event.
On the day of the event, the Team arrives about an hour before participants, and sets up. The Team also completes teardown, which takes about an an hour after participants leave.
