Barvinok is no ordinary dance school. We believe dance is meant to be inclusive and for the entire community. We rely on the generous time contributions of our dancers’ family members, who volunteer at various events and activities.
Volunteers help keep our tuition fees accessible and also build and strengthen our Calgary Ukrainian dance community by working together. Our parent volunteers are the backbone of our dance society and are very involved.
Commitment to Volunteering
Each dance season, families of child and youth dancers commit to:
Volunteering approximately 15 hours per dancer (variable based on enrollment) at various events
or
Volunteering as a Board Member or Chair (fulfilling their entire volunteer commitment for the year)
Donating or arranging for the donation of 1 silent auction item per family for our annual Dinner & Dance (Zabava)

Our most recent casino event was held in April 2024.
NEW! Adult Class members also provide 1 volunteer per family for the casino event.

Volunteering and fundraising commitments are made at the time of registration and are a requirement for membership.
