Help us grow myGbay.ca into the most useful community resource on Georgian Bay.
Every one of us has a passion, an area of expertise, or a favorite corner of the community we know inside-out. That local knowledge is exactly what myGbay.ca needs right now.
myGbay was built to make it easy for residents to find age-friendly services, activities, and events—especially for those 55 and better—but the directory can only be as strong as the voices behind it. If you love organizing information, know a hidden gem that deserves the spotlight, or have an eye for accessibility, this is your chance to share what you know and help your neighbours live well.
How You Can Contribute
We’re looking for community volunteers to:
- Spot and suggest new listings – from home-based artisans to social clubs and walking trails.
- Add the right tags and categories – so users can filter by “55+ friendly,” “accessible,” “free,” and more.
- Write short, clear descriptions – a couple of sentences can point someone to exactly what they need.
- Review accessibility details – check wheelchair access, large-print menus, restful seating, etc.
You don’t need to tackle everything—choose the area that excites you most and start there.
Easy to Get Started
- Tell us a bit about your passion or skill by filling out our quick volunteer form: [Join the myGbay Volunteer Team].
- We’ll email you simple guidelines and a short list of tasks (no tech jargon, promise).
- Work at your own pace—add one great listing or review a handful each week; every contribution counts.
Recognition, Your Way
Prefer quiet contribution? Great—we’ll keep it private.
Want a public shout-out? We’re happy to credit volunteer profiles on the site, in our newsletter, or at upcoming community events.
Why Your Help Matters
- Better listings mean better living. Accurate tags and descriptions help neighbours with mobility or budget concerns find the right options fast.
- Local knowledge beats algorithms. No automated system knows Georgian Bay like the people who live here.
- Community builds community. Your input turns a simple website into a shared, trusted resource.
