The organizers of Montreal’s 375th birthday celebrations put out a first call Monday for 6,000 volunteers to help with the party.
The Society for the Celebration of Montreal’s 375th Anniversary is seeking volunteers to help in the sectors of hospitality, security and production. It’s looking for those who are “dynamic, polite and have strong interpersonal skills,” and who are interested in getting involved in their neighbourhood or with major shows and activities.
Volunteers must be at least 18 years old and can come from outside Montreal and Quebec, although they will have to pay for their own transportation. The invitation is open to all, but particularly geared toward students, retirees and “lovers of Montreal.”
The non-profit group organizing the year-long celebration already has more than 100 volunteers working on its board of directors and various committees.
Those interested in volunteering can go to 375mtl.com/benevoles (French), or 375mtl.com/en/volunteers/ (English).
