St. John's Events
Our events are often available on Zoom as well as in-person, so are not just for the St. John's area members.
Check out our Facebook group - note you need to have a Facebook account to join our group. Some details about our FB group, and MUNPA members willing to help you join up, can be found here.
Our groups offer a variety of activities for members. Please use the group page links at left to see what's on offer. See below for maneuvering through our website on a phone.
***Did you know our activities are supported by a membership fee? MUNPA does not receive any other funding, so all our costs are borne by our members. If you were unaware of this, please consider becoming an active MUNPA supporter. This will help us maintain the full slate of MUNPA services currently available, many at no additional cost to members. Details on paying the fee (currently just $2 per month) are on our page, https://www.mun.ca/munpa/about-us/membership-fees/ ***
For all MUNPA events preregistration is required. To register email munpaevents@mun.ca. You can reply to this group events email and it will come directly to the events email address, and not to the full list. Some events have space limitations, so respond early. Also, please remember that we wish to keep our events SCENT FREE!

Navigating our website – if you are using your phone or some other devices to move around our website, you might not see our various page titles on the left-hand side of the screen, as appears on laptops and pcs. Instead, when you go to our website on your screen, you should see a bar near the top of the page that says the page title you are on. On the right hand side of that bar there’s a down arrow, well, it may look like a wide-mouthed V. Just tap that arrow, and you will be able to drill down to our secondary and further pages. You may have to use left and right facing arrows, perhaps on the bottom of your phone screen, not on our page, to drill back up to the top of our page again.

Parking for events hosted at Signal Hill
Current Status
There are three parking lots at the Signal Hill Campus building we usually use, Emera Innovation Exchange (EIX). The upper lot S-1 is only for employees. The middle and lower parking lots 200 and 201 are for visitors including MUNPA. See the parking lots on this map. Visitor parking at the Signal Hill Campus requires payment by all users. MUNPA is paying for parking at Signal Hill for those who register for our events, so be sure to include your licence plate number (just the number, no other car details needed) when you register. You won't need any MUN permit for your car. We will give your licence number to CEP so they won't ticket you. Overflow parking is also available across the street at the Geo Center at no cost. Both Signal Hill Campus and Geo Centre have other visitors besides us, so parking lots get much usage. Carpooling or dropoff/pickup is recommended whenever possible.
If you are not on our licence plate list by 2 days before the event at the latest, you can pay for your own parking by downloading the Passport Canada parking app on your smart phone. Details on this can be found here.
Cars parked on the Signal Hill lot that are neither on our registration list nor registered at Passport Canada Parking will be ticketed by CEP.
The Programme Committee welcomes your suggestions. If you have an idea for a travel session, members’ forum or an outing or expedition, or know someone who does – or could lead one – please send your suggestions to us by e-mailing munpaevents@mun.ca.
If you would like to know more information about what kind of events we offer, our events from last year are listed here. We do try to vary events from year to year but bring back some of the more popular ones if requested.
