Join the From Roots We Rise volunteer team on Tuesday, September 15 at 6:00 PM at the Edmonton EXPO Centre for an evening of event preparation and rehearsal.
Volunteers will begin with a brief introduction and venue walk-through, then help place approximately 3,000 orange T-shirts on student seats. Following setup, we will need all hands on deck to support the Memorial Cloth rehearsal by helping the production team practise the route, timing and positioning for the following day’s gathering.
This is a great opportunity for someone who would like to support the event but may not be available during the daytime on September 16.

Student Greeters & Concierge volunteers are among the first friendly faces students and educators will meet when arriving for From Roots We Rise: A Youth Gathering.
Volunteers will welcome school groups, help direct students and educators from buses to the appropriate entrance or ticket area, assist with wayfinding and seating, and help groups move smoothly through the venue.
Volunteers may also be asked to assist with guest flow, event materials or the Memorial Cloth procession as needed.
