The Town of Bridgewater is establishing a new Events Committee and we're looking for keen folks interested in stepping up and helping to both plan and execute major events in the Town of Bridgewater, including Canada Day on the LaHave, Christmas on the LaHave/Bridgewater Shines, the Harvest Moon Music Festival, and more!

ABOUT THE COMMITTEE
The Town of Bridgewater Events Committee is an advisory committee to Town Council.

In addition to providing advice to Town Council on matters related to public events, this committee shall also be responsible for collaboratively working with staff to plan, develop, and execute events endorsed by Bridgewater Town Council and funded by the Town of Bridgewater.

Events under the purview of the Committee shall include but not be limited to: Canada Day on the LaHave, Christmas on the LaHave, Music on the Riverbank, Harvest Moon Music Festival, and the Bridgewater Frost Fair.

The Committee may also provide input and support, as requested by the Staff Lead or Town Council, in the Town's Special Events application process with external organizations that are seeking to create/host events in Bridgewater, and provide advice to Council accordingly as requested or required by Council.

Folks interested in applying to join the committee should expect a time commitment of one to two meetings a month, lasting 60 to 90 minutes in length, for the months of January, February, March, April, May, July, August, September, October, and December each year. June and November (prior to the Canada Day and Christmas events) may require more than two meetings, as these periods are the "home stretch" before the events take place. Volunteers are also expected to be available to assist in executing events on the date(s) they are scheduled to take place.

If you'd like to submit your information for consideration as a committee member, please visit www.bridgewater.ca/serve and fill out the form there to tell us a bit about yourself and why you'd like to get involved!
