**Volunteers receive FIVE DOLLARS per volunteer shift**
*Regular Volunteers are Encouraged*
Volunteers will help kids safely walk to school and cross the streets both before an after school. Volunteers serve as cross guards!
We are looking for volunteers for the entire year, however, if people are unable to make that commitment, we will take the availability they have. (the amount of walking seems to slow down in December, January and February and picks back up in spring)
Maybury - AM: 7:40-8:10 Monday-Friday
PM: 3:00-3:30 Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday
PM: 2:10-2:40 Wednesday

Description

We believe that healthy neighborhoods are the basic building blocks of a successful city.
