As a float marcher, you will have the unique experience of walking with GOV in the Capital Pride Parade. Throughout the parade route, you will be able to get to know your fellow GOV players, jam out to some great music and enjoy some awesome vibes; all while showing the best that GOV has to offer!
Pride Parade - GOV Float Pepperer
Date: Sunday Aug 27th
Time: 12pm to 3pm
# needed: 6 people
It is tradition in GOV's float to have 3 pairs of players peppering behind the float while we go through the route. This role is an opportunity to showcase your volleyball skills in front of a crowd. This role is fairly chill but does require volunteers to be able to 'pepper' or consistently bump and volley in a controlled manner.
