ADULT VOLUNTEER PROGRAM |
Volunteers offer invaluable support to Sharkarosa. They work with visitors and staff, animals, independently and in groups, on weekdays and weekends. They learn, help the ranch with education and conservation activities, and have fun!
An interest in animals and their conservation, along with the ability/desire to work with guests is a must. All participants are chosen through an application and interview process. Positions are limited.
Saturday volunteer slots are available once volunteer training is complete. All volunteer training must be done during the week. Criminal background checks will be done on all pending applicants.
The Adult Volunteer program is open to anyone ages 18 and up. Our volunteers provide a number of services:
1. Assist staff in cleaning out habitats, scrubbing water bowls, preparing diets.
2. Act as teacher aides to Ranch staff during field trips(Spring, Summer & Fall).
3. Act as teacher aids during Summer Camp; preparing and assisting campers with activities.
4. On Saturdays, assist staff with presentations, guest animal questions & loading/unloading Safari Trams and train rides.
Prospective applicants are required to attend our Volunteer Info & Interview Night on Tuesday, March 9th 2010 from 6:30 to 8pm.
Reservations are not necessary; please bring your volunteer application, or a copy of your application, to the session.
