Invitation to Become a Health Care Volunteer at the 35th Teddy Bears’ Picnic
by Nursing Students' Association 09 Feb '24

09 Feb '24

Hi everyone! Please see the below information forwarded from the Children’s Hospital Foundation of Manitoba. Hello, I hope this email finds you well. My name is Teresa Clifton, and I am a staff member with the Children’s Hospital Foundation of Manitoba. I am thrilled to share the exciting news that the Children’s Hospital Foundation’s in-person Teddy Bears’ Picnic is returning to Assiniboine Park on September 8, 2024. After having 2 years of virtual events due to the challenges posed by the pandemic, we are excited to celebrate the 35th year with an in-person gathering. We would be honored to have you as part of this special day by being a health care volunteer at Assiniboine Park. Your participation would contribute significantly to the success of the event in assisting with bear exams, surgery, casting, admitting and more. A bit of history of the Teddy Bears’ Picnic, for the past 33 years, the Teddy Bears’ Picnic has been a cherished annual event organized by a dedicated team of volunteers and has welcomed an audience of over 30,000 families and their children. Its purpose is to provide a joyous family day while raising awareness about the experiences of sick and injured children at the hospital and in the Children’s Hospital Research Institute areas. As a health care volunteer, you will get to experience the exciting activities that include the Dr. Goodbear tent, offering medical tests, MRI’s, X-Rays, and more for children, teddy bears, and families. We also have the "I want to be a Scientist" tent, designed to engage children in science-based activities, fostering imagination and curiosity. If you are interested, please fill out the form<https://forms.gle/RZDddNMKt8U3aR4h9> linked here or scan the QRC that is located on the poster. Volunteer shifts will be from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm or 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm. Thank you for considering this opportunity. We look forward to potentially having your delicious offerings at the 35th Teddy Bears’ Picnic and be part of a Manitoba tradition.
