Volunteer opportunity: We are looking for youth mentors for our event (Bigs for a Day) for children (Littles) on our waiting list for our program. We will match you 1-1 with a Little or in a small group.

Most of our Littles in our waiting list are Little Brothers, so we especially need Big Brothers.

Activity: Together with your Little we will learn fishing techniques, go fishing and have lunch together. We'll have grilled hot dogs and sides- a vegetarian option will also be available. All equipment and bait will be provided. There's no need to know how to fish. All levels are welcome.

Location: Garfield Park Program Center. Garfield Park Program Center does not have an exact address location but is located within the Garfield Park Reservation (address shown). A small map will be provided with event reminder. And wayfinding signs to location will be up.

Hosted by Cleveland Metroparks Youth Outdoors and in partnership with The Fishing Foundation.
