Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise today to assist the Arctic Winter Games. Mr. Speaker, the Arctic Winter Games Committee requires volunteers to help put together beds for the participants who will be coming to Yellowknife. On March 13th and 14th, they will be working in four-hour shifts and require quite a few volunteers yet to put those beds together. At this time, on behalf of the Members who will be in town and the staff at the Legislative Assembly, I am putting forth a challenge to the other departments to see who would put
in the biggest teams to put these beds together, Mr. Speaker.
The person to contact, of course, is Dan Schofield. His phone number is 873-7755. His fax number is 920-6467 and I have been asked to give the information that volunteers will be provided with a t-shirt as long as they register. You do not have to register yourself, just put in your name and the volunteers there will fill out the registration forms for you. As I said, they need quite a few people to do this. It will be done in three four-hour shifts, two on Friday and one on Saturday.
Someone has passed me a note asking what job am I doing. I will be the foreman. Thank you.
