Volunteer Environmental Educators lead groups of students (K-6th grade) at our nature center through hands-on exploration in topics including wetland ecology, habitat diversity, urban wildlife, food chains, and life cycles. Bluff Lake Nature Center is located in the Stapleton neighborhood of northeast Denver.
Through their enthusiasm and guidance, volunteer educators make it possible for each student to experience a meaningful discovery at Bluff Lake. Volunteers are asked to work at least one morning per week 9am-12:30pm (Tues-Fri) for our field trip programs.
No experience is necessary, although teaching and/or outdoor experience preferred. Applicants who can speak both Spanish and English are especially encouraged. We will offer on-the-job training.
Please contact Education Manager Heidi Pfeiffer at heidi@blufflake.org to learn more. Learn more at http://www.blufflake.org/volunteer/youth-education
