Volunteers Needed
The 2010 paddling season is upon us! We have a number of tasks that we need help with!If you are able to help with any of these tasks please contact ORCKA president, Bruce Hawkins.
- Tom MuCulloch, Canadian Safe Boating Council, is conducting some research for the education stream of the SmartBoater web site. He has contracted the Gadd Research Group to conduct a few "on line" focus groups. There will be two in English and one in French and will involve about 30 individuals who are involved as educators for various types of boating. Paddlers and Paddling Educators are needed for this project. Those chosen will be compensated for about 90 minutes of time to go on line, answer and ask questions and provide comment and input as to how the education stream of the web site could best serve them. Find out more about this volunteer opportunity.
- Assist ORCKA to research and develop a plan to work with Algonquin Provincial Park and the Algonquin Back Country Recreationalists organization to help train Algonquin Provincial Park users in Canoe Tripping “Best Practices”. Approximate Volunteer Hour Requirement: 50
