Games volunteers needed

The 2017 55+ BC Games are less than a year away and a small army of volunteers will be needed to make the games a success.

Vernon was awarded the games, held Sept. 12-16, which are expected to attract more than 3,500 participants.

The games will require 1,200 to 1,500 volunteers.

All backgrounds and interests are welcome for the many available positions and opportunities throughout the Games.

Anyone wishing to volunteer can find more information online.

The 2017 Games website is the source for all 2017 55+ BC Games related information.

The site will be updated regularly with more information specific to Vernon and area activities, a games overview and the vision for 2017, volunteering opportunities, list of the sports, venues, accommodations and many other helpful links/facts and local maps as these become available.

“We are extremely excited about the progress we are making," said Anne Haight, director of promotions, Vernon & Area 2017 55+ BC Games. "With the launch of the Games website, it allows us to better communicate with organizers, athletes, and the public."
