The Drumheller Dragons are on the lookout for new volunteers to help fill key vacant positions for off-ice officials.
The search began after losing several long term volunteers.
“We’ve lost three volunteers in the past couple years and with job transfers and other circumstances, we may lose another couple from the crew next season,” said Barry Pozzo, head off-ice official coordinator.
Off-ice officials oversee all home games for the Dragons. Positions include a scorekeeper, timekeeper, penalty box attendants, and goal judges.
“We’ve had a pretty dedicated and professional crew over the past 10 seasons, but many of them are elderly, so it’s time for recruitment,” said Pozzo.
Those interested in learning more are encouraged to contact Pozzo at 403-823-6601 or the Dragons head office at 403-823-2022.
“If anyone is interested and available to help with any remaining games this season, we could get them into some games and get their feet wet,” said Pozzo. “There are many perks as a volunteer. We look forward to hearing from anyone who wants to join.”
