Pride Transportation Ambassadors are essential in ensuring a smooth and welcoming arrival and departure experience for Pride attendees. Stationed at designated shuttle stops, volunteers will use radios to communicate with other stops and leads about shuttle schedules, attendee needs, and any logistical updates. Volunteers will also assist in directing attendees onto shuttles and providing information about routes and destinations. This is a great role for energetic, customer-service-oriented individuals who enjoy engaging with the public and helping guests navigate Pride events.
