Canadian Heritage is looking for volunteers for the 41st edition of Winterlude.
The festival is set for February 1-18, 2019 in Ottawa and Gatineau.
It says a variety of positions are available, which cater to a wide variety of skills, experiences and time commitments.
“Each year, hundreds of dedicated volunteers help our Winterlude team ensure that this festival is a memorable and enjoyable event. I encourage you to join us this year. I can assure you that it will be a truly rewarding experience,” says Pablo Rodriguez, Minister of Canadian Heritage and Multiculturalism.
Residents interested are invited to visit the Canadian Heritage website for a full list of Winterlude volunteer opportunities and descriptions.
Anyone with questions is asked to contact the Canadian Heritage Volunteer Centre at 819-956-2626 or go to pch.benevoles-volunteer.pch@canada.ca.
More than 700 volunteers help to run Winterlude each year in Ottawa and Gatineau.
To show its appreciation, Canadian Heritage holds a Volunteer Appreciation Night and provides Winterlude mementos for those volunteering for a minimum of 12 hours.
