Parent Volunteer Area
Glencoe Skating Club's Fundraising & Volunteer Coordinator is Angela Kellestine.
She can be reached at akellestine@gmail.com.
In order to keep our fees low, we do require parents to volunteer in order to raise funds for the club. We do this primarily through bingos, however there are other opportunities available to fulfill your volunteer and fundraising requirments.
BlueWater Competitions
As a member of the Bluewater Region, we are required to staff certain competitions within the region with volunteers. This ensures that we get a portion of the profits from regional competitions as a member of the Bluewater Region. Futures West Competition is set for March 5 and March 6, 2011 in Point Edward. Our club will share the volunteer responsibility of Skater Registration with the Thedford Skating Club. Please email akellestine@gmail.com if you are able to work a minimum 5-hour shift on one or both of these days. We will also need to staff a competition in April. Please email Cheri-Lin for details and dates.
Glencoe Fair Dance - Bartending
For the past several years, our club has been bartending at the Glencoe Fair Dance. What a fun and interesting way to help the Glencoe Agricultural Society! We require approximately 12 volunteers, of which a minimum of 50% must be Smart Serve Certified. If you can pour a beer or shot, you qualify!! Because the dance takes place the week prior to the start of the skating season, it is important that you convey your availability to akellestine@gmail.com or president@glencoeskatingclub.com prior to the second week of September.
