primary color handprintsWednesday, May 30 at 6:00pm
We really LOVE our Jr. Volunteers and want to get them all settled into the Summer Volunteer Program at the discovery center!

If you have a child 12-16 years old who would like to lend a helping hand at the discovery center then this orientation is for him or her!  Please plan to attend our Jr. Volunteer Orientation program where each Jr. Volunteer will learn all about the discovery center, our expectations and how to sign up for their volunteer time. What a great way to "give back" all while having fun and maybe earning some great community service hours!  Please download the Jr. Volunteer Application and bring the completed form to orientation with you.  Also, be sure to let us know that you are coming by emailing Kim Walker.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact her at 985-340-9150. Share the event on Facebook!
