Although volunteers are not paid, they are an integral part of the team. This is your chance to participate in the execution of this special event, meet new people and support Ontario&#8217;s country music community.<\/p>\n<p>In order to meet our goals for the CMAOntario Festival &amp; Awards weekend, we require enthusiastic, committed volunteers. We are most grateful for the dedicated volunteers that contribute each year to the success of our event with their professionalism and dependability.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Please note that we receive a high volume of applications that exceeds the number of available positions each year.
