VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY - UFEST 2019 (May 24/25, 2019 - Borden Park)
We are excited to announce that we will have a booth set up to promote the Ukrainian Bilingual program in Sherwood Park. The UFest Edmonton Ukrainian Festival is a celebration of Ukrainian culture, food, music, visual arts, crafts and dance (www.ufest.ca). Our booth is located in the Vendor Village which is right in the heart of the festival, so you will have access to the entire event!
We are looking for volunteers to be at our booth - shifts are only 1 hour long (consider taking 2 shifts or more if you can spare the time!) Easy to schedule in if you and your family will be at the event anyways! Plus we will be sharing a booth with our friends at Viter, so each shift will have at least 2 volunteers in the booth at all times.
Email Jennifer Lychak, BUCPS Secretary at bucpssecretary@gmail.com or text (780-318-4068) if you can help out!
UPCOMING BUCPS MEETING
Please join us for our upcoming BUCPS Meeting next week - Monday, May 13th at 7:00PM - in the St. Theresa School Library.
We look forward to seeing you there!
