Volunteer details:
This is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to get involved at the onset for the auto auction of the century! They are looking for anyone with a passion for vintage cars and trucks, who won’t mind getting a little greasy! Some mechanical experience would be great, but not required. Many current volunteers are students from Olds College who want to help. Anyone can participate, although there will be some lifting and bending, so volunteers are encouraged to have sturdy hands, feet and back. This is the first of many volunteer opportunities to come. Volunteers will get an exclusive sneak-a-peak at some of the exciting cars that will be auctioned in June.
Some duties include:
Cleaning, mechanics, detailing, washing
