Volunteer Opportunities for the Skaters

Canskate Program Assistants

-Once your children are proficient skaters (usually at the Junior level) and have reached ages 9 or 10, they can volunteer to help out during the Canskate program. They will learn leadership skills and to take on responsibility. Many children volunteer once or twice a week and really love the experience.
