Salmon Fest seeks volunteers
The Steveston Salmon Festival organizers
still need volunteers for their July 1 extravaganza.
With so many options to choose among, you can
contribute a few hours and still have lots of time left to enjoy the day with
your friends and family.
The list runs the gamut from early morning
parade marshalling to clean-up after the fun is over, and everything in
between.
And you get more than just the fun of
participating in our village’s fête of the year, there’s swag to be had.
“Volunteers will receive a Salmon Festival
t-shirt, lanyard, nylon string backpack and swag, and a relaxing volunteer
lounge supplied with a variety of food and beverages for break times to keep
you hydrated and energized for the day. Volunteers can also enter a free draw
to win some fun prizes as well,“ according to Janice Froese, the administrative
co-ordinator.
It’s a great chance to not only help out but
to meet other members of the Richmond community. It is neighbours helping
neighbours to have a fun-filled day.
“We are making some exciting changes to this
year’s festival and we are eager to work with our volunteer team to make the
2018 Steveston Salmon Festival the best one yet. I would like to give a huge
Thank You to all our past and future volunteers. The Steveston Salmon Festival
would not be possible without your help,” says Josiane Leguerrier, volunteer co-ordinator.
