Local Relay for Life committee looking for volunteers to make upcoming event possible

The Canadian Cancer Society is hoping to secure enough volunteers so that the Relay for Life event can go ahead.

 

In a letter to media, spokesperson Jill McClurg says the local committee is in desperate need for the 2022 campaign, as they’ve been experiencing challenges with recruitment efforts and aren’t seeing much uptake.

 

McClurg adds they’re at risk of the event not going forward if they don’t have enough volunteers.

 

Numerous positions are vacant including leadership and event logistics, community outreach and communications, as well as registration and finance.

 

Those interested in learning more can email relay@cancer.ca or call committee member Jeff Lindstrom at 204-778-5380.

 

Catch Thompson Today at 12:40 and 5:10 this afternoon for more information.
