The Norwegian Pavilion is sending out a request for someone to manage the Norwegian Folkfest store. This entails unpacking, pricing articles, packing up, and looking after the store during the 3 days of Folkfest. There will be many helpers during Folkfest.
We are also looking for someone who is qualified to head security.
We are hoping people will be willing to come forward to fill these positions.
Please contact Sharon and Marcel Voyer @ (306) 384-2420 or msvoyer@sasktel.net
FOR THE NORWEGIAN PAVILION TO PROCEED THIS SUMMER, THESE POSITIONS NEED TO BE FILLED
Thank you.
