You're Invited to Learn, Connect and Be Inspired

Looking for an opportunity to connect with other volunteers, learn new skills and bring fresh ideas back to your organization?

This November, the Volunteer Summit 2026 will bring together volunteers from across Lunenburg and Queens Counties for a day of learning, networking and inspiration. Whether you're part of a community hall, sports club, festival, museum, service organization or another volunteer-powered group, the Summit is designed to help you strengthen your organization while connecting with others who understand the same opportunities and challenges.

Last November, nearly 100 volunteers came together for the inaugural Volunteer Summit. While they arrived to learn new skills, many said one of the biggest benefits was connecting with other volunteers who understood the realities of running volunteer organizations.

"Networking was amazing. Being one voice among others that share the same struggles really helps."

"Very inspiring day. It was incredible to hear from such passionate people. The insight, tips and experiences shared were invaluable."

The Summit was created after local volunteer organizations told us they wanted more opportunities to learn from one another, share ideas and build stronger volunteer programs.

Volunteers are at the heart of our communities. By investing in the people who give so much of their time and talent, we're helping strengthen the organizations that enrich life throughout Lunenburg and Queens Counties.

On Saturday, November 7, the Volunteer Summit returns with a new theme—Local Hands. Lasting Impact. We hope you'll join us for another inspiring day of learning, networking and practical ideas to take back to your organization.
