Summer Volunteer Opportunity
Leaders In Training Experience
Our Leaders In Training Experience (LITE) program is a volunteer workshop in which teens (14 – 17 years of age) develop the necessary leadership and communication skills to volunteer at our summer camps. Volunteers are coached in camp safety, volunteer expectations, group dynamics, age appropriate learning and lots more. They gain valuable work experience, earn school community service requirements and have lots of fun!
The LITE Program is CLOSED FOR 2012.
We hope you revisit this site in February 2012 for application information.
Safety Town (Ages 12-15)
Responsible, enthusiastic volunteers are needed to help provide a safety education program for preschool children.
Volunteers lead a variety of activities including arts and crafts, games, songs, outdoor and other recreational activities that are designed to teach children 4-6 years of age how to be safe while still having lots of fun!
Volunteers gain valuable work experience while developing leadership skills and increasing student community service hour records!
The Safety Town Program is CLOSED for 2012. Please revisit our website in March 2012 for the application.
