Volunteers Needed
WRKC is proud to be a non-profit that is 100% run by volunteers. The dedication and hard work of these volunteers allow us to offer the lowest prices for kart racing in the province. Thank you to those that have reached out thus far to be added to our volunteer roaster. We are still in need of additional volunteers for a variety of positions, including officials, race day operations, social committee, etc.
Please reach out to [email protected] if you are interested in helping in any capacity.
