Volunteers are able to lend their time and talents to help us offer the quality programs and services that we have become known for since 1955. In recognition of these contributions, we are able to offer complimentary parking passes and beverage coupons. We are also able to offer training and social events, such as our annual Volunteer Recognition.
After the application has been reviewed and approved, potential volunteers will be contacted to set up and interview with the Volunteer Services Coordinator. Only selected candidates will be contacted for an interview.

Effective May 1st, 2023 we will no longer require masking in the Centre. Masks will be available and provided by TGC for any volunteers, visitors, members who want to wear a mask. Please note that should Public Health advise that changes are required then we will return to masking. Some staff, volunteers and members may continue to wear a mask and we will support you.
