Celebrating Volunteers Across the Region
Published on 04 June 2024
The Rural City of Wangaratta is hosting a morning tea to celebrate the work of volunteers across our region. The morning tea will be held from 10 - 11am on Wednesday 12 June, at the Wangaratta Performing Arts and Convention Centre. Volunteers are encouraged to RSVP for the event.
Volunteers are the heart and soul of our community, providing indispensable support to countless organisations who rely on their volunteer base to complete numerous vital tasks. Their dedication ensures the smooth operation of essential services and programs.
Whether it’s working with a local community group, the emergency services, or coaching a sports team there are a wide range of volunteer roles across the Rural City of Wangaratta. This includes volunteers through Council who assist at the Library, Performing Arts Centre, and Gallery. Volunteering helps people develop new skills, make friends, and stay connected while also making a difference in other people’s lives.
“This morning tea is a chance to celebrate and honour the individual contributions of volunteers across our region” said Mayor Dean Rees. “We want the volunteers out there to know how valued they are and that their contributions don’t go unnoticed. Their work makes our community a better place for all."
10 - 11am Wednesday 12 June
Memorial Hall in the Wangaratta Performing Arts and Convention Centre.
