Halloween Prowl Volunteers
We are looking for volunteers to help with our popular Halloween Prowl scheduled for October 25, 26, and 27, 2019. Volunteer one, two, or all three nights. We appreciate any and all help. Please contact Danielle Lanson, Volunteer Coordinator, for more information.
Volunteer opportunities include:
- Carving pumpkins: help us carve LOTS of pumpkins on Thursday, October 24, 2019 anytime between 1-8 pm; stay as little or as long as you wish to carve. This is an indoor task unless the weather is amazing! A great opportunity for scouts and other community groups; we supply the pumpkins, you bring your favorite carving tool (we have a limited supply to share). Stop by after the event weekend - beginning Monday after 9 am and up to noon on Tuesday to claim your pumpkin for your own Halloween celebration.
- Serving refreshments: bag pre-popped popcorn and make hot chocolate for participants to pick up after their tour. Friday, volunteers are needed from 6:45-9 pm; and Sunday, volunteers are needed from 5-8:30 pm. This is an indoor task.
- Keeping the candles lit: Help us light all the candles before the event starts. We will provide clicker lighters. Initial lighting: Friday, volunteers are needed from 5:00-6:30 pm; Saturday, volunteers are needed from 4-5:30 pm; and Sunday, volunteers are needed from 4-5:30 pm. If you are available to stay throughout the event we greatly appreciate the help relighting candles and blowing out candles at the end of the night. This is an outdoor task, walking along candlelit paths, sometimes over uneven ground.
- Helping set up the luminaries: We set up the luminaries on Friday, October 25, 2019 beginning around 1 pm. Typically this takes an hour or so to complete; you are walking on our trails following the truck of supplies over uneven ground.
- Help with the S’more fire: Help at the S’mores fire by managing the fire and offering extra marshmallows should one drop into the fire pit. Parents are responsible for helping their child make their S’mores. It’s a gooey fun time! Friday, volunteers are needed from 6:45-9 pm; Saturday, volunteers are needed from 5-9 pm; and Sunday, volunteers are needed from 5-8:30 pm. This is an outdoor task in our side yard, near the Visitor Center.

Mission Statement
Mass Audubon’s mission is to protect the nature of Massachusetts for people and wildlife. Through our guiding strategies of conservation, education, and advocacy, we are able to make meaningful impacts every year.
Description
Mass Audubon protects 38,000 acres of land throughout Massachusetts, saving birds and other wildlife, and making nature accessible to all. As Massachusetts’ largest nature conservation nonprofit, we welcome more than a half million visitors a year to our wildlife sanctuaries and 20 nature centers. From inspiring hilltop views to breathtaking coastal landscapes, serene woods, and working farms, we believe in protecting our state’s natural treasures for wildlife and for all people-a vision shared in 1896 by our founders, two extraordinary Boston women.
Today, Mass Audubon is a nationally recognized environmental education leader, offering thousands of camp, school, and adult programs that get over 225,000 kids and adults outdoors every year. With more than 125,000 members and supporters, we advocate on Beacon Hill and beyond, and conduct conservation research to preserve the natural heritage of our beautiful state for today’s and future generations. We welcome you to explore a nearby sanctuary, find inspiration, and get involved.
Moose Hill is Mass Audubon’s oldest wildlife sanctuary, encompassing protected forests, fields, and wetlands. Seasonal programs, summer day camp, diverse hiking trails, and a red maple swamp boardwalk provide countless opportunities for exploration.CAUSE AREAS
