Volunteer for 2010 Career Fair
Help make the 2010 Regional Career Fair another great success. Volunteer as a bus greeter, water walker, hospitality host or member of the set-up and/or tear-down crew. To volunteer, contact the North Superior Workforce Planning Board at 346-2947 or email info@forrestmarketing.ca with information on how we can contact you (phone # and/or email address).
Bus Greeter volunteers will be stationed outside (dress accordingly) and will board the buses when they arrive at the Hangar. The greeters will deliver welcome message and materials to the students.
Water walkers will circulate on the show floor distributing water. They will also relieve exhibitors for breaks.
Hospitality hosts regularly check the exhibitors’ lounge to ensure the area is well stocked and clean. They also assist with assembling student packages for distribution if needed.
