Youth are invited to get involved in their community through the New Westminster Youth Ambassador Society.
The society is looking for young men and women aged 15 to 18 who want to represent the city through Metro Vancouver and B.C. During their year as ambassadors, the youths will volunteer at a variety of events in New Westminster including New West Grand Prix and Canada Day and will represent the city at events like parades.
In addition to having fun while representing the city and contributing to the community, the program will appeal to teens looking for mentorship and leadership growth, being part of a team, earning grants toward post-secondary education and volunteer credit hours for school.
If you’re interested, contact the New Westminster Youth Ambassador Society at 604-524-5675 or email [email protected].
It’s anticipated the new team will start meeting in September. An information night is being held on Thursday, June 7 at 7 p.m. at the New Westminster Chamber of Commerce office at #201-309 Sixth St.
