Where can I get information about how to volunteer for the 2010 Vancouver Olympics?
It is estimated that some 25,000 volunteers will be needed to help run the Games. The Vancouver 2010 Bid Corporation had more than 50,000 names of people interested in volunteering for the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games in 2010 as of July 2003. The Vancouver 2010 Winter Games Organizing Committee will develop and promote a formal volunteer recruitment and training program, likely in 2008. Visit the Vancouver 2010 Web site for more information on the 2010 Winter games. It’s important to know there are plenty of other opportunities for helping organizations in your community. If you are interested in volunteering your time, check out Volunteer BC’s Web site for more information.
