General Volunteers 2025

Welcome Ferndale Pride Volunteers! Our event cannot happen without your help. You help us set up, keep the event running smoothly, and clean up after to keep Ferndale beautiful. Sign up with us to meet new people and learn about Ferndale and the Greater LGBTQAI Community. Or, sign up with a group of friends and create your own Super Volunteer Team! Almost every shift is two hours. Pick and work as many shifts as you like!

Volunteers under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult. In addition the volunteer must be at least 13, and have this application filled out by their parent or guardian. Walking long distances, lifting heavy objects and standing for long periods is required for most Volunteer Tasks during Ferndale Pride. Be mindful of your limits and dress accordingly. Please refer to the shift descriptions for more information. Only bring what you need. Volunteers are solely responsible for the security & storage of their personal items. All items must be cleared by event end. If protestors or other negative or unsupportive signs and behaviors are present, or someone is acting in a way that is making you uncomfortable, please report it to Volunteer Check-In. Pride is a Safe Space for you, too. Volunteers aged 13 or below may volunteer by having a parent/guardian sign up & volunteer.
