The Town of View Royal is looking for volunteers to help with its annual Craigflower Canada Day Festival on July 1, 2026. The event, which takes place at Craigflower Manor from 10:00am to 3:30pm, is being hosted in partnership with the Victoria Highland Games Association.

This year marks the third year the town and the association have teamed up to host the celebration at this location. The Town of View Royal is offering a variety of volunteer roles to help the event run smoothly. Available positions include assisting with event setup, greeting guests, working at the welcome booth, supporting performers, and helping with cleanup.

Volunteers can choose from flexible 2-3 hour shifts that best fit their availability. In appreciation of their time, all volunteers will receive a complimentary Canada Day t-shirt and access to refreshments during the event.

Residents interested in volunteering are encouraged to contact Gary Mathies, the event coordinator, by email at [email protected]. Organizers remind attendees that there is no parking available on-site at Craigflower Manor and encourage community members to walk, cycle, or take transit to the festivities.
