Special Olympics is  looking for volunteers in the Williams Lake area.

“We are currently working on re-launching sport programs for athletes with intellectual disabilities in Williams Lake and are looking to fill spots on our executive so that we can bring these beloved programs back to the community,” said Kristen Webster, Manager of Community Development.

Special Olympics is a non-profit competitive sport organization with more than 4,000 athletes in the province across 56 communities.

These volunteer positions require attendance at one monthly meeting from September-June and the few hours a month that you give makes a huge difference in the lives of athletes in your community.

Positions that we are looking to fill include treasurer, program coordinator, PR coordinator and local coordinator.

“No experience is necessary, just a willingness to have fun and make a difference,” said Webster.

For more information about the programs that we offer or how you can get involved please contact Kristin at kwebster@specialolympics.bc.ca or toll free at 1.888.854.2276.
