As many of you may know, this past week was Closure Week at the museum.
Everywhere I looked, my staff friends were hard at work cleaning, painting, and repairing the exhibit pieces we all love. What a flurry of activity!
We were also incredibly lucky to have a team of volunteers from PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) join us on Wednesday, adding a full day of enthusiastic energy to Closure Week activities.
Thanks to this great group, MCM will sparkle when we re-open on September 12!
When I paws-ed for a quick break, Lynn Silver, our Volunteer Resources Manager, tipped me off that this wasn’t the first time PwC has helped us out.
“This is the 3rd year that a PwC Volunteer Team has offered support to the MCM during Closure Week,” reports Lynn. “In 2008, a PwC Volunteer Team also helped us get Santa’s Village ready for Santa’s arrival in mid-November.”
Community support like this really is vital, as the museum is rarely closed and our to-do list is rarely short. From all of at the Manitoba Children’s Museum, we’d like to say thanks again to the PwC Volunteer Team - you guys are wonderful!
