Parent Volunteers Needed
Our camp will require Parent Volunteers to Chaperon our Athlete Accommodations and help with meal preparations & clean up.
Between now and June 30th, please email our CCA program coordinator Laura Filipow at [email protected], to confirm that you are willing to be a Parent Volunteer Chaperon for the weekend.
Please indicate which age group you are willing to chaperon. It will be most practical to chaperon the age group of your own kids at the camp so that you can also help with transportation.
We may also require your help with meal preparation and meal clean up.
please email our CCA program coordinator Laura Filipow at [email protected], to confirm that you are willing to be a Parent Volunteer Chaperon for both Friday & Saturday nights.
CCA is looking forward to provide training camp opportunities for all our club athletes in Alberta!
