During the Kids Free Fishing Day, we offer a fish painting activity for children waiting to fish. We have rubber fish that kids paint with bright colors, then press onto muslin making an impression! We need your help with the activity!

We mostly need activity helpers! We also need help setting up, tearing down, taking photos, and we need a greeter!
More about activity helpers:
Dress to get messy! Our activity needs your help setting out paint and rubber fish, helping kids paint the fish with a foam brush, pressing a muslin square to the painted fish and hanging it up, and then cleaning the fish off for the next participant. The paint we use is washable, but we suggest wearing paint clothes anyway. This is an extremely fun job! You can sign up for one or more shifts, volunteers that stay all day get a free lunch!!! ANYONE can take this volunteer spot, no application needed!
