Volunteering

Canmore Nordic Centre volunteers come from many walks of life and from all over Alberta (and beyond). What we have in common is a love for the outdoors and a deeply held commitment to preserving our wonderful wilderness playground.

Volunteer involvement in facility ambassadorship is essential to keeping Canmore Nordic Centre the beautiful park that it is. Spend some quality time with fellow outdoor enthusiasts while helping keep our park a place to be proud of. Volunteer days are fun, guaranteed!
