Castro Street Fair Volunteer Information

CASTRO STREET FAIR
Sunday, October 2: 11:00 am to 6:00 pm
Parking lot behind the Castro Theater

The Castro Street Fair is one of our favorite days of the year, when we get to dance in the street as a part of this great celebration of out LGBT community. We're returning our preferred location from years ago: the parking lot behind the Castro Theater.!

We need help with load-in, set-up (includes building our dance floor), boot-check, wranglers (who distribute flyers and promote Sundance Saloon), tear-down, and load-out.
