FINA Needs Volunteer Drivers

Organizers of the FINA World Swimming Championship in Windsor next month want residents to ask themselves two questions.

Are they over the age of 25, and do they want to drive VIPs from location to location during a world event?

They are looking for volunteer drivers to drive athletes and VIPs from venue to venue during the championships which are set to take place from December 6 to 11.

The vehicles are already provided. Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles is making the Chrysler 200, 300 and the Pacifica available.

If interested, volunteers are asked to attend a quick information session at the WFCU Centre at 5:30pm Wednesday, November 30 or Thursday, December 1.

Volunteers can also contact organizers by emailing them at volunteers@finawindsor2016.com.
