Opportunities
The annual Taste of Manotick is taking place on Saturday, September 12, from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM along Manotick Main Street.
We are currently recruiting volunteers to help make this community event a success, and the hours completed will qualify toward student community involvement requirements. We have a variety of shifts and roles available, including morning setup, managing road closure barricades, general site operations, and event breakdown.
Volunteers will be supplied with a volunteer vest and water, and they will also have the opportunity to enjoy some of the food samples during the event. For students under the age of 18, we ensure they are paired up with an adult volunteer or a parent/guardian for safety and supervision.
Proceeds from this year’s event are staying close to home, as they will be supporting the St. Mark High School Breakfast Program and Watson's Mill.
Could you please share this opportunity or the registration link with your students? Interested students can sign up directly using our online form: Taste of Manotick Volunteer Sign-Up
