The Multicultural Society is seeking billets to host some of the members of the Li Jigeurs Méchif Cultural Group who will be participating in the Carousel of Nations on January 31.
These Metis dancers from Golden are always a hit with Carousel of Nations fans.
The society is seeking three billets for: two single women; an older couple; an elderly man.
“If you have a room to spare and would not mind sharing your home the night of January 31, would you please contact us?” asked the society’s BR Whalen in an e-mail received by The Revelstoke Current.
She also noted that the society needs a few more people to contribute one hour during the event or to help with clean up (7 pm to 8 pm).
If you can help, please email the society at revelstokemulticulturalsociety@gmail.com.
