Ambassadors

Pavilion Ambassadors

Pavilion Ambassadors are your official hosts at each Folkfest pavilion. These dedicated volunteers represent their cultural heritage group at public and media functions, and devote much time to making your Folkfest visit the most enjoyable experience possible!

Youth Ambassadors

Your pavilion co-hosts are the Youth Ambassadors, young people whose duty is to help welcome visitors during the festival, and to make personal appearances on behalf of Folkfest at community events and official functions throughout the summer. Folkfest's Youth Ambassador Program enables young people between 15-21 years of age to meet new people, exchange ideas and learn to respect one another's cultural traditions. Special thanks to C95 FM , Rock 102 FM, CKOM NewsTalk for providing their assistance with the Youth Ambassador Program and activities!

Scholarships

Scholarships are provided to individuals who demonstrate leadership and cultural involvement in their organizations and our community. These grants assist them in ongoing studies. We congratulate last year's recipients, who both won a $500 scholarship: Morag Wagner and Neil Kalra.
