The finals of the 50th Quebec Games will kick off in Drummondville on February 27, 2015. This provincial competition will transform the region into a hive of activity: close to 3,500 young athletes from all over Quebec will pour in to show off their talents in 22 sports.

How can such a major event be held while respecting the environment and the local community? With the help of the Cascades Green Squad, which is actively recruiting people like you!

Here’s why you should join as a volunteer on the squad:

You will benefit from a unique personal experience, which will give a boost to your resumé.
