As “Youth-to-Youth 2026” approaches we are looking at the volunteer roles that need to be filled the week of Mar 22-29. While the main transportation needs -- large groups to/from Toronto and within Six Nations during the week will be done by buses -- there will be a need to transport small groups of students or adult helpers either from the airports or within the Six Nations area.
There are three times we are looking at:
1) Sun Mar 22 with pick-up times ranging from 10am to 6pm- need is to pick up participants at Hamilton (or perhaps Toronto Pearson) and drive to Chiefswood Park in Ohsweken.
2) Mon- Fri - during the day- taking small groups to local areas- so Chiefswood park to Mohawk Institute or Good Minds bookstore or Lloyd King School on Mississaugas of Credit. This would be a 3–4-hour commitment to drive to site, participate in the activity and then drive back to Chiefswood.
3) Sat Mar 28- return trip to Toronto or Hamilton airport from Chiefswood Park- likely Saturday morning (early or late)
There may be other opportunities for volunteers at Chiefswood Park during the week. If you can canvas your clubs and identify people willing to help if needed, that would be great. For drivers, please identify dates available, number of passengers and contact phone number.
