Volunteers needed for family event this summer

186

Paul Porteous of the Ormond Harmony Cloverdale Recreation Association is pleased to announce that the organization would love to host a family-oriented event this summer. For the event to happen, more volunteers will be needed, and there is perhaps no better time to sign up than right now, with National Volunteer Week on the horizon!

The Ormond Harmony Cloverdale RA has existed since 1971. Its members have not hosted an event in over 4 years, mostly due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and also due to the loss of volunteers. 

“We used to have a Christmas and Easter Potluck Supper, a Strawberry Social a few days before Canada Day, and a winter Bowling Night at the Chesterville Bowling Lanes,” Paul explained. “There may be new people in our communities that do not know we exist.”

Paul has some ideas about what kind of family event might be fun for this summer, but he doesn’t want to share his thoughts yet, out of respect for the different ideas that new volunteers may bring to the table. 

“If you live in this area of North Dundas and would be interested in helping, please e-mail Paul Porteous at rayshirx1@juno.com for more information.”
