Costumed Characters - Do you have a theatrical streak? Are you a Halloween enthusiast? You might have what it takes to be one of our Halloween characters that delight and educate visitors. All costumes, props and scripts will be provided. Costumed characters should be people who enjoy Halloween and will really "get into" their role. You do not have to memorize the script. Each station is based on a theme with key talking points and sample dialogue. You will ad-lib comments that fit with the mood of the station and have fun! Costumes will be provided.
Mascot - Kids love the Nature Center mascots, Walker the Woodpecker and Myrtle the Turtle. They love having their picture taken with them, too. We need volunteers to wear these adorable head-to-toe, furry costumes. Mascots need excellent people skills and should be able to animate their character without talking.
