[community] seeking volunteers for the Ontario ParaSport Games - February 8 - 10 2019.

[Dan Shire]

There's an excellent volunteer opportunity for people interested in
disability, accessibility and sport coming up in 3 months in the Durham
Region (that's just east of Toronto) - The Ontario ParaSport Games will take
place  February 8 - 10, 2019.  Some of the athletes competed in the
Paralympic Games - these are national and world class competitors.

 

I volunteered in the summer of 2015 for the Pan Am and Parapan Am games in
the GTA - it was a very rewarding experience, one I can recommend for any
individual. 

 

They will need a lot of volunteers to help the ParaSport Games sun smoothly
and safely for the athletes and spectators.   Please consider helping out. 

Most activities will take place at the Whitby Ability Centre, which is very
close to the accessible Whitby GO station.

interest in volunteering.
