in the kink community

DID YOU KNOW?

Volunteering in the kink community is a time-honoured tradition that we strive to uphold with integrity. From the Board of Directors and beyond, all INDIGEO VOLO events are entirely volunteer-run. Everything you see is all organized and orchestrated by kinksters who have volunteered their time and talent. As a result, we are able to provide the community with our undivided attention during our events.

Anyone who volunteers to help with set-up, decorating, bartending (SIR required), cleaning, or teardown will gain free admission to the current party OR a free ticket for our next party.

PROVIDING EQUAL ACCESS OPPORTUNITIES

INDIGEO VOLO supports kinksters with disabilities. If you sign up for a shift but are unable to complete it, don’t worry! Please let a Director know and we will cover the rest of your shift. Rest, relax, and enjoy the event.

We recognize that persons with disabilities face additional barrier and obstacles to attendance; this can include both the cost and/or physical commitment required for a volunteering shift to obtain free entry. If you are unable to volunteer and are facing financial hardship that will affect your attendance, please reach out to us by email.

INDIGEO VOLO’s Volunteer Co-Ordinator will be happy to work with you on any accommodations or schedule flexibility that you may require both discreetly and compassionately.

available positions

EQUIPMENT SETUP • 4:30 PM (OUTSIDE THE EQUIPMENT STORAGE SPACE)

Please make sure that you meet our Equipment Lead at the corner of Montreal St and Superior St – just look for the u-Haul!

Set-up for the parties happens on the day of the event. The duration of the set-up is usually about an hour and a half. We need at least five volunteers for efficient setup.

All of this is supervised by our Equipment Lead, so if it’s your first time, or you have no idea how the equipment gets set up, no problem! They will be happy to explain the process and ensure you have the tools and knowledge needed to work safely.

To help set up, you must be able to:

Carry equipment from a ground-level storage area and load it into the transport vehicle;
Meet the truck at the Cook Street Village Activity Centre to unload the equipment;
Help arrange and put together the equipment on the play floor.

Arranging the chairs and inflating the air mattress (with an electric pump) in the Aftercare Area;
Setting up the Littles’ Lounge (cushions, candies, activities);

Spot-mopping any dirty areas at the end of the night;
Tidying the bathrooms with the above steps;

The venue provides all of the necessary cleaning supplies, and a Director will walk you through the process; it’s very much what you would expect when tidying up after a party! It’s not glamourous, but it’s an essential and very much appreciated position.

When volunteering, you are by no means restricted to that space. If you need to use the restroom, or grab a drink, go ahead! If you are feeling uncomfortable, there are resources available to help you.
