Volunteer for this year's Amazing Agriculture Adventure (AAA) in Winnipeg on September 20, 21, & 22!

I am sending this email as a call for volunteers to help with our AAA event held at the Richardson International Kelburn Farm and Bruce D Campbell Farm & Food Discovery Centre on Sept. 20-22 with set-up being on Monday, Sept. 19. You can volunteer for a full or half day.

Be a part of all the excitement and be an agriculture ambassador! We need at least 14 volunteers for both areas:

Class hosting- You work with teachers and students to lead them to the correct stations at the right time. You are not responsible for supervising students. We provide you with instructions before the day and give you all the information you need at the morning orientation. Easy-peasy!

 Volunteer station- You run/manage 10-minute stations for each group! We provide all the information you need to do this with scripts before the event and training the morning of. These stations are very interactive and fun to work at. This is an awesome way for you to teach kids about agriculture and share your story! Volunteer stations include: Bees, Enviroscapes, wheat grinding, and farm business station at Kelburn Farm and the Bio-Security station at Glenlea Farm & Food Discovery Centre.

Do you want to inspire kids about Canadian agriculture and volunteer for Winnipeg AAA? Click here to register before September 1, 2016. Once you register, we’ll send you event details within 2-3 weeks prior to the event.  Our AAA cannot be a success without all of our fabulous volunteers. Over 1000 students have registered for AAA Winnipeg! We hope you can join us, and we appreciate your support! Please register by September 1 or you can call me at 204-471-9698.

 Please feel free to forward this email on to other colleagues, friends, producers who you think might like to help us!

Thank you to Richardson International Kelburn Farm and University of Manitoba Glenlea Farm & Food Discovery Centre & farm for providing the great venue for this event!

Thank You,

Diane
