Call for Volunteers

Penticton... We need your help!

Drop in at 210 Hastings between 4:30 pm to 6 pm.


 We have been working hard getting Smart Cities Challenge going. A lot has been done behind the scenes and we are now ready to ask for further help. We've been contacted by Infrastructure Canada and they have confirmed we are on the right track and we will be meeting with the Executive Director of the Challenge in Vancouver in less than two weeks. We are well positioned to be named a finalist, but we need some help!

We have a number of areas that we need help with including community engagement, stakeholder meetings, data analysis, event coordination. We have a strong leadership team in place and we're looking forward to adding to the team. We will have roles defined and will help you help us win the Smart Cities Challenge!

Please pop in anytime between 4:30-6:00PM (with kids in tow if that makes life easier) to chat about how YOU can get involved with this initiative!

Feel free to share in your network. If you are unable to attend, please reply with how you are able to help.
