The Alberta Browncoats Society is a service organization. As such, we ask our members to complete 4 hours of community service each year. While many of our members quickly complete this commitment at events such as Homeless for a Night, working shifts at our convention booths, or designing tshirts and posters for our charity events, others meet their commitment through volunteering at the Can’t Stop the Serenity (CSTS) event.
We are looking for 6-10 volunteers willing to commit to assisting us in running our flagship charity event. This commitment will consist of attending one volunteer orientation meeting, assisting with the public poster campaign the week prior to the event and assisting with our live and silent auctions at the event. Volunteering for the CSTS team will ensure you meet (& possibly exceed) your annual volunteer requirements if you are a registered member of the Alberta Browncoats Society.
Not a registered member? No worries. We’d still love to have you help out.
We’re holding a CSTS volunteer orientation session on Wednesday June 12 at The Carrot (9351 118 Ave). The volunteer orientation will begin at 7pm and will be over before 9pm. If you’d like to grab a snack or coffee, please come a few minutes early.
Once your orientation is over, feel free to hang out with other Browncoats as Wednesday is also our regularly scheduled knitting night.
I just heard about the movie playing a week after it was done. I would have liked to have gone to see Serenity in Theatre. I have friends who would have liked to as well. How does one join?
The AB Browncoats have both a formal and informal membership. Formal members work a minimum number of volunteer hours, pay a fee, get discounts at Happy Harbor Comics, and a vote in our AGM. More details are available on our Membership page – http://www.albertabrowncoats.com/?page_id=603.
Informal members come out to our events, big and small, and are frequently members of our FB Fan Page (https://www.facebook.com/Alberta.Browncoats) or mailing list. You can join the mailing list by entering your email address and clicking “Subscribe” on the sign up widget on the right side of our main page menu.
Live in Brazil, if you have filias here would like to help!
Sincerely,
Milena Martins
Morena Baccarin (Inara) was born in Brazil. In the past (approx 2009 at San Diego Comic Con) we met a few Brazilian Browncoats but we have lost touch over the years. I’ll ask around and see if anyone is aware of an established fan group in the country.
