Volunteering

Parents are expected to volunteer 8 hours throughout the season. We have also added a volunteer opt-out fee for parents who are unable to commit time to the program throughout the year. We would love to have everyone involved and engaged with the club but also understand that everyone has a lot going on. We have also added some more volunteer opportunities for those who aren't available during program times. 

To better manage our volunteers, we are hoping to recruit a volunteer coordinator to help assist managing all the various roles - this would count as your volunteering for the year! If you are interested in taking this on, please email skilldevelopment@revelstokenordic.org!

  • track volunteer hours commitments by liaising with SDP Program Coordinator and parents involved in coaching, fundraising events, SDP activities and local BC Cup race.
