POSITIONS AVAILABLE WINTER 2013-2014 VolunteersAt Kamiskotia we love to work with Volunteers. We find they are friendly, caring, enjoy winter and hopefully skiing or snowboard, love to be where the people come to play and want to help out wherever needed. Volunteers will be of legal age to work to retirees. Some positions are taxing; others are outside or inside helping out. You get to choose what the right fit is for you and we will try to accommodate your schedule as much as we can. Whether it’s helping inside keep the chalet in order after a busy rush at lunchtime or maybe if skilled enough and trained on site, helping with loading a lift. Who knows what the possibilities are unless you try. So, rather than spend the winter sitting around wouldn’t it be more fun to get involved at Kamiskotia Snow resort “Where Timmins comes to play”?
