Help Effie Yeaw Nature Center Naturalists connect children with Nature! Volunteers assist with set-up, sign-in, science activities, games, hikes and more! Volunteers must enjoy working with kids, be reliable, have transportation to the Nature Center, and love Nature!
This opportunity is ideal for teens, 14 years old and above*.
Fall Camps are held the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of Thanksgiving week:
Mon, 11/25, Tue, 11/26 and Wed, 11/27.
You can sign up for one, two or three days of camp. Shifts are from 9:30am to 2:30pm (bring a lunch).
Volunteers must dress for the weather--we do not stay inside during our Nature Camps unless it is pouring! Most days it is lovely out and nice to be outside enjoying the wonders of nature.
*Volunteers who are 18 years or older must complete Live Scan background screening through our account. We provide a form with our account information and you can take the form to a Live Scan operator to have your fingerprints taken. We will provide more details on how to have your fingerprinted rolled for the Live Scan to adults who would like to assist with nature camps.
