Volunteers: Sundance In The Castro

Volunteers at SF Pride

Sundance In The Castro Volunteer Information

We're going to have outdoor dancing in the Castro again, and it's going to be better than ever! Events are no longer allowed at Jane Warner Plaza, so we are moving to Noe Street, between Market and Beaver, where we'll have more room and the ability to lay down a dance floor. And we are getting a new snap-together portable dance floor that should be relatively easy to put together.

We need your help for set-up and tear-down, and we also need event monitors whose main job is to watch over the barricades at both ends of the block and move them if needed for emergency vehicles. The latter is a requirement by the City and our permit is conditional on having monitors.

Log-in required

View only, no log-in required

Required to sign up for a shift on-line.
If you volunteered for a prior Stompede, Castro Street Fair, New Year's Eve, or SF Pride, you already have an account in the Special Event volunteer system.


NOTES:

You do not have to use this system to volunteer. You can contact the volunteer coordinator with your name, e-mail address, cell phone number, and shifts desired, and we will get you signed up.

Special note to Sundance Saloon volunteers: The Sundance Saloon volunteer system is different and separate from our Sundance Special Event volunteer system. We suggest that you use the same User ID (e-mail address) and password for both systems.

If you volunteered since 2011 for a prior Stompede, Castro Street Fair, New Year's Eve Dance, or SF Pride, you already have an account in the Special Event volunteer system.

All volunteers will receive a pass to use at Sundance Saloon.

Problems or questions about logging in with your account? Contact us. Please add volunteer@sundancesaloon.org to your e-mail address book. This system relies on getting messages to you.
