Volunteer Opportunities
“Volunteers don’t get paid, not because they’re
worthless but because they’re priceless.” - Sherry Anderson
“The world is hugged by the faithful arms of volunteers.” - Everett Mamor
Anyone volunteering onsite while cottagers are
present must obtain a police check for volunteering with the vulnerable
sector. Waupoos will provide a letter that will enable a volunteer to
obtain the police check without cost. Volunteers do not require a police
check for Cleanup Days.
