Description

Explorations Academy is a charter middle and high school in downtown Bellingham that helps its students experience and learn about the natural environment and healthy communities through hands on, field-based learning. 


They are raising money for scholarships through a Carnival-themed gala at the Squalicum Boathouse. They need student volunteers to help make it happen!


Tasks include: 

-Registering and welcoming guests
-Media ops (social media, photography, videography)
-Raffle monitors
-Outdoor engagement programs (running carnival games)


Please indicate in your RSVP what your preferred task(s) are. 


The volunteer shift will start at 4 pm and end at 9 pm. Rides will be available to and from campus (indicate in your RSVP if you need one). There will be free food for volunteers!


While you're at the event, enjoy live music by Hot Damn Scandal! 


PLEASE NOTE: Volunteers MUST BE 21+ and are required to attend a hybrid briefing on Monday May 13 from 4-5 pm in Academic West or Google Meets (please indicate in your RSVP whether you're attending in person or online. If you indicate that you're attending online, you will be emailed the Google Meet invite). 


The Squalicum Boathouse is mobility aid accessible. Most volunteer tasks require the ability to stand, move around, and operate equipment, but if you need preference for a more stationary task due to any visible or invisible disability, please email Community Engagement Liaison Jacob O'Donnell at as.csc@wwu.edu at least one week prior to this volunteer opportunity. Additionally, there will be live music at the event so it may be too overstimulating/loud for some. Earplugs will be provided upon request by Explorations Academy upon arrival at the event.
