The Cape Fear Botanical Garden hosts a Halloween event for families including candy stations for kids to trick or treat, crafts, educational activities, and vendors. The event is three nights and the Garden generally recruits volunteers to help kids with crafts and distribute candy. This year we would also like to find a volunteer or two for each night to read Halloween stories to kids around the campfire. It's a fun and easy volunteer opportunity and would allow the volunteer to have free entrance to the event. We need the volunteer to commit to stay from 4:30pm -9:00pm to allow the activity to stay open the whole time people are here. We will provide Halloween stories for kids which are not too spooky and we have a fire pit in the Children's Garden where we will build a campfire. Masks are required due to the number of people at the event.
No particular skills are necessary but if you're good at storytelling or interacting with small children that's a plus.
Thanks!
