The Municipality is on the lookout for WinterPLAYGROUND attendants, petting zoo helpers, and food vendors.
There would be many mouths to feed during the winter festival, so the RMWB encourages community non-profit organizations to provide tasty treats.
Residents with a sporting background may also volunteer to referee at Shootout on the Snye.
Finally, residents may participate in the talent show.
Adults and youth may sign up online to showcase their talents to Wood Buffalo with prizes going to the top three performers in both categories.
More information about this family event celebrating the winter season and northern culture is available on the Municipality’s website.
