Prince George wants to become "Volunteer Capital"

Some cities lay claim to being a “city of champions” or a “tournament city”, now Prince George wants to be known as “The Volunteer Capital”.

City council voted Monday night to work with Enhance PG to create a strategy that promotes the city’s volunteer-heavy culture.

Councilor Lyn Hall says the 2015 winter games will be a national-level event to show-off the city’s volunteers.

Enhance PG says the city ranked #1 in the most recent “BC State of Volunteering Report” at 62% of citizens over 15 volunteer in some capacity.
