The Executive Council at the Manitoba Association of Health Care Professionals is proud to announce that this year MAHCP is sponsoring the Manitoba Filipino Street Festival, on June 8 and 9!

The 2019 edition of the Manitoba Filipino Street Festival, which takes place at the Maples Multiplex (434 Adsum Drive in Winnipeg) marks the eighth year of the event and it keeps getting bigger and bigger! According to festival organizers, last year’s event had an estimated turnout of 15,000 over the two days.

MAHCP will have a booth at the event, where we’ll be handing out MAHCP gear and information, from noon until 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, and on Sunday from noon until 3 p.m.

We’re looking for a handful of volunteers to help at the booth over the two days, so if you’re interested, please email info@mahcp.ca

In addition to the booth, MAHCP will have a group walking in Saturday’s Filipino Cultural Street Parade and we’d like to see as many MAHCP members in that group as possible!

There’s no RSVP required: we’re asking MAHCP members to pick up a free T-shirt at the booth and then assemble for the Parade at the marshalling area at Watson and Jefferson. Please look for our MAHCP flags.

Please see the event poster here.

There will be a stamp competition, as well as entertainment at the main stage, 40 food vendors, and fireworks at 10:15 p.m. on June 8, so it promises to be a good time. See you there, MAHCP members!
