This organization is called S.A.B.A.H. and we have many volunteer opportunities at our day time rink. We work with individuals with varying needs on ice during the winter and on a turf for the spring/summer.
We skate at our Bud Bakewell Rink (north Buffalo) on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and possibly Thursdays this year. We welcome individuals who would like to skate with our athletes and give them a positive outcome to their experience.
More opportunities with SABAH
No additional volunteer opportunities at this time.
