Volunteers needed: Dr. Ed O'Connor Scholarship Committee

The Dr. Ed O'Connor Scholarship Committee needs your help.

The scholarship committee was founded by dedicated Calgary alumni in the 1970s to provide opportunities for Alberta based students to attend StFX. The scholarship has grown over the years where we are able to offer scholarships in the amount of $6500/year for four years.

Funding for the scholarship is raised through a charity casino licence. For the scholarship to earn its share of the casino proceeds, we have to provide volunteers to perform various duties under the supervision of casino employees and consultants. No experience is necessary; training and meals are provided on site.

Here are the shifts over the course of the two-day casino:
