VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR AWARD
The Business of Curling workshop program promotes volunteer development and recognition as a vital component to curling club operations. For example, we encourage our curling clubs to formally recognize volunteers at a volunteer appreciation night. This is the one of the more significant tools a club can use to retain and re-motivate their volunteer ‘workforce’.
By creating a national award, we hope to set the example thereby encouraging clubs to create their own recognition programs.
The Volunteer of the Year Award is based on the nominee’s contributions from the previous curling season only. Please read the application form for full details.
