SUMMER PROGRAM VOLUNTEERS

From pre-school young ones, to junior high school youth, and everything in-between, The Town of Banff Summer Programs see upwards of 100 local kids coming through our programs daily. Based out of the Banff Elementary School our leaders program nature hikes, art projects, special events, field trips, gym jams, and cook-off’s, and are ALWAYS looking for extra leadership hands.

SCHOOL-YEAR YOUTH LEADERSHIP VOLUNTEERS

Our afterschool and holiday break programs encourage local youth in grades 6-12 to take on a leadership role within programs. Assisting kids with homework, program projects, and social interactions, is a great way to gain valuable skills in the child care/camp leader industry.

SPECIAL EVENT VOLUNTEERS

Our Children and Youth Program Team plan and execute local events like Family Day, National Youth Week, and other holiday celebrations. We are always looking for event day volunteers to assist with recreational activities, bake sales, and craft projects.

We all have one thing in common; we are lovers of the outdoors and care deeply for the preservation of our beautiful wilderness playground.

The Canmore Nordic Centre Provincial Park is committed to trail maintenance and new trail development. Local involvement in trail care is an essential part of keeping the Canmore Nordic Centre Provincial Park beautiful. So come out and do some work or hang out with fellow outdoor enthusiasts and be a part of keeping our trail system one to be proud of.
