Children’s Activities Team Lead for special events
The Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village has five special events each summer and we are looking to improve and increase the children’s activities program that we offer for each event.
We are looking for a volunteer that will be the team lead at one or more of our events (see dates listed below), who will be responsible for supervising the other volunteers and ensuring that the activities are safe, appropriate and fun.
The team lead would coordinate the other members of the team (4-10 volunteers depending on the event) to organize some of the following activities:
• Pyrohy toss
• Egg and spoon races
• Gunny sack races
• Face painting
• Costume dress-up
• Monitoring the jumpy slide
• Handing out prizes/gifts to children
This role has some flexibility and the team lead can introduce other games and activities in addition to the above in order to enhance the program.
This would be a great role for a youth or student looking to achieve leadership experience for their resume or for references/recommendation letters.
Special event dates:
Monday, May 23 – Celebration of Spring
Sunday, June 26 – Vintage Day
Sunday, August 21 – Friends Ukrainian Music Fest
Sunday, September 11 – Harvest of the Past & Harvest Food Festival
The volunteer shift would be from 11 a.m. – 5 p.m.
All volunteers receive a meal ticket which can be used for any food on sale at the event (such as Ukrainian food or other food vendors) and they also receive refreshments during the day such as water, tea, coffee, muffins, granola bars etc.
If you are available for one or more of the special event dates listed above please contact Karen.johnsrud@gov.ab.ca / 780-662-3855 ext 1112.
