Thank You Volunteers - A Volunteer Week Wrap Up

Volunteer Week was held over the week of 18-24 May 2020 and to celebrate we hosted a 'Virtual Party' with our volunteers. 

 

Throughout the week there were opportunities for volunteers to answer riddles with the chance to win prizes.

 

We had 'thank you' messages sent in from our CEO, the ACA/People Outdoors Board and some of our campers.  Check out the rocking thank you video below that was sent in by one of our campers, Aaron, who plays the drums and sings 'Heroes' for our volunteers.

Big thanks to you, Aaron, for sending the amazing video through - keep on rockin'!
