PARENT ROSTER
We do need parent help to run the carnival - all Little Athletics ACT events are run by parent volunteers. GUNLAC will be asked to fill a set number of officials roles on the day, and we will set a roster for our parents to fill these roles. You will only be asked to fill a role for around 1-2 hours on the day.
If you decide to not attend the carnival please let us know by emailing enquiries@gunlac.org.au so we can take you off the parent roster (preferable to filling vacant spots on the day). Please check the parent roster in the below file.
