Sport Manitoba is hosting a block party at the Santa Claus Parade! They need volunteers to help on their block. Sport Manitoba’s block is one of the most popular ones, with activities provided by Fit Kids Healthy Kids facilitators. They have fun and games that are geared towards little ones aged 2-10.
Volunteers will help set up, help manage the activity zones, and encourage people to have some fun. Once the parade starts, the volunteer team will be on the route making sure the crowd does not run out on to the parade route. A quick tidy up after the parade is all that is required. If you want a front row seat to the parade (and see the new Santa float up close!), come out and be a part of the block party!
