Volunteer WITH US

Not only are volunteers vital to Confederation Park 55+ Activity Centre, it can also be vital to the volunteer by boosting self esteem, self confidence and satisfaction with life in general. A volunteer's role can give a sense of pride and identity. We have a variety of different areas which we would love help with.  Please either email your completed Volunteer Application Form to members@yycseniors.com or drop it off at the Office.

      • Special Events: There’s always something special on the horizon. Extra hands are always appreciated for extra-big events.
      • Tea & Conversation: Join the lively crew on Thursday afternoons to serve tea, dance and mingle!

      • Grant Writing: If you have experience writing grants, we'd love to talk to you!
      • Board of Directors: Stand at the helm and help set the course of the Centre as we look toward the future.

VOLUNTEER APPRECIATION

We love our volunteers and honour them annually with a lunch event that always includes entertainment!


Volunteer Appreciation Party

Tia Golding, Name that Tune. Email her at

The Volunteer Appreciation Event in April 2023, went extremely well.  This was the first time in three years that we were able to honour our volunteers again!

The staff really enjoyed putting the 60s themed event together, with a very engaging fire safety presentation, Name That Tune provided by the fabulous Tia Golding, and ending with everyone grooving to the 60s on the dancefloor!

Everyone who attended really enjoyed themselves!

Next Year's Volunteer Appreciation Party

For our next event, please us know if you volunteer for the garage sale, the casino or a position inhouse, you are welcome to attend this event even if we have not contacted you by emailing members@yycseniors.com. This is a day that is meant for our volunteers. We are now tracking our volunteers in a new way for the garage sale and casino, so will be able to send you an invite for the next event provided you are registered. Many thanks go out to our Volunteers for all of their hard work!!
