Hockey Skills Coach and Camp Help
The experience
We would love someone to spend a few hours every day developing our son's hockey skills. Two days a week we will get on-ice practice, and the other days you can do "dryland" training (shooting, exercises, stickhandling, etc.). We will also ask for some help around our camp (cleaning cabins, landscaping, gardening, etc.) If you have a passion for hockey and the outdoors this is a perfect opportunity.

Program Details
We provide an opportunity for people to escape city life and rest in a natural setting. We manage 5 family cabins and 3 tiny cabins. We maintain the grounds, do repairs and renovations, help in the garden, organize activities, and of course, spend quality time with our guests.
Activities & Shift
Listed in order of priority:
1. Hockey Skills Coach - organize on-ice and off-ice hockey skills, drills, and exercises
2. Kitchen Help (prepare healthy plant-based meals, clean dishes, sweep & mop floor, organize garbage and recycling, etc.)
-we do not prepare meals for everyone in the camp but we can often have a group of 10 dining with us at any time.
3. Cleaning Cabins (should have a high standard and attention to detail)
4. Playing with Children (you should enjoy being with children and share your talents and interests with them).
Shifts are not always set in stone, so the volunteer should be flexible and come with a real desire to enter fully into the experience. Some days we may work more, others less.
Rules
1. At meal times please do not sit down at the table and wait to be served. Please sit down, when we can all sit down.
Likewise, please don't make us ask you for help to clean up after meals. If we are cleaning up, you should help until we are all done. We are a team.
2. We try to create a pleasant and loving atmosphere, a smile and a "thank you" goes a long way in Canada.
