Summer Camp Volunteer (High school students ages 14 - 18)
The Museum hosts Science is Everywhere camp during Winter, Spring, and Summer Break. During our day-long or week-long camps, Junior Camp Counselors help set up activities, engage campers, assist the teacher, and generally support an exciting, learning-filled experience for campers ages 4 - 12.
Summer Camp Volunteers are expected to commit to at least two camps during the summer. Each camp is a week in length and a total of 40 hours. Applicants will be scheduled for an interview with the Volunteer Coordinator and the Education Director or Education Coordinator. Those offered a position must attend a Science is Everywhere training held prior to camp.
To apply, please fill out and submit a volunteer application form to Julia Davis, Volunteer Coordinator, jdavis@nuclearmuseum.org.
