• Put the application in an envelope, and write “Olympic” application on the front.  If you drop off in person, ONLY give it to the person at the front desk.

• All successful candidates must attend Information Night, Tuesday, February 2, 2010 at Provincial Services for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing in Burnaby (4334 Victory Street)

 The event will require a very long day of travel within large crowds of people using public transit.  We will have chaperones for the event, but will be UNABLE to provide full supervision.  Therefore, we need deaf youth to be independent and responsible to be able to travel with the group.  (ie: youth need to know what to do in case they are separated from the group).
