Summer Camp Volunteer
We are seeking a few energetic teens with a love of nature, the outdoors, and young children to earn some community service hours by helping out with our summer camp program. Volunteers will serve as “an extra pair of hands” for lead teachers, but will not be responsible for independent supervision of children. Applicants need to be willing to spend time outdoors regardless of the weather and be willing to get messy alongside 2-6 year olds who will be actively engaged in art, gardening, sand, mud and water play on a daily basis. For all of the details regarding dates and times, please click on the application below.
