How Do You Zoo?
We are not accepting applications for this program at this time.
How Do You Zoo? volunteers oversee young children (and their parents or teachers) as they role-play zoo jobs in this wonderful exhibit of make-believe. How Do You Zoo? has four sections: a keeper office, a zoo commissary, a veterinary hospital, and an animal exhibit. Children pretend to be zoo staff by wearing uniforms and completing tasks at numerous activity stations.
How Do You Zoo? has volunteer programs for both adults and teens. The adult program operates weekends year round and weekdays during the school year. The teen program runs weekdays during the summer.
Special qualifications: Volunteers in this program must be interested in working with children, be flexible, have a good imagination and a sense of humor, and be willing to be on their feet for a busy three-hour shift.
Time commitment: Three three-hour shifts a month for a year, monthly meetings, and support of exhibit-related special events. We are recruiting for both weekday and weekend volunteers.
Age requirement: You must be at least 18 years old to apply.
Training: Training for this program will take place on two weekday evenings and two weekend days. Dates for 2011 have not been determined. You must be able to attend all the sessions to participate in the program.
