CFR needs help finding volunteers to sell drink tokens – Opportunity for minor sports teams
From Mike Olesen, CEO of Westerner Park
Hi folks, overall we are reasonably resourced with volunteers this year except for the sales of drink tokens. This is an area that has a pressing need! Below are the shifts that we need to fill. If you could work on your networks of family and friends that have always said they’d help out in a pinch, that would be so appreciated! We also have the option to provide “per-diems” to groups (like minor sports teams or extra-curricular groups) that take on a bulk of shifts.
The key contact for anyone available is Steven Rutherford and he can be contacted directly at: [email protected] .
- Wednesday November 3 – 4:00 pm – 9:00 pm (10 Shifts needed)
- Wednesday November 3: 8:30 pm – 1:30 am (9 Shifts needed)
- Thursday November 4: 4:00 pm – 9:00 pm (8 Shifts needed)
- Thursday November 4: 8:30 pm – 1:30 am (6 Shifts needed)
- Saturday November 6: 10:30 am – 3:30 pm (12 Shifts needed)
- Saturday November 6: 4:00 pm -9:00 pm (10 Shifts needed)
- Saturday November 6: 8:30 pm – 1:30 am (8 Shifts needed)

Thanks for your help!
Every day is a new day!
Life was challenging for Steven after a series of 5 heart attacks that have affected his physical and mental health over the last 10 to 12 years. Steven became quite isolated and had little interaction with anyone. He was on a number of medications which changed over time, yet he never felt good. He also tried different doctors and finally ended up with one who referred him to the RDPCN. He has taken both the Happiness program and the Moving on with Persistent Pain program twice, and also taken Health Basics, Anxiety to Calm, Quit Smoking, and used the services of a pharmacist and mental health counselor.
The PCN staff has connected him with other community resources such as the Golden Circle. His medication has been decreased and he has gained perspective on different healthy solutions to his challenges.
Steven says the PCN has made a tremendous difference in his life. He has gained social skills and confidence which started through interacting with the PCN staff. Gradually he has put his foot forward and used the skills he learned to connect with other people and programs. He is a very different person than he was two years ago. It is much easier for him to talk to people. He does lots of walking using his walker. And he has a much healthier perspective: Every day is a new day and he makes the most of it!
Steven’s wife and daughter have attended PCN programs on his recommendation and loved them. Steven says every connection with the PCN has been is very positive and very educational!
