VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

YOUTH

Safety Town Counselor
Safety Town Counselors are one of the most important parts in running a successful program. The typical age of a Safety Town counselor is between 6th and 9th grades. We do have some older, experienced Safety Town
counselors who are in 10th, 11th and 12th grade. Safety Town Counselors must have completed 6th grade before Safety Town begins.  These counselors are vital in the day-to-day operations of Safety Town.  Each counselor is assigned to a classroom of kids or help on the blacktop.
These counselors help the teacher and help the kids, because we all know, when we were 5 or 6, we couldn’t do everything ourselves! More importantly, a Safety Town Counselor is responsible for bringing excitement and energy to the participants. Many children in Safety Town are nervous the first day and it is the role of the counselor to make sure they feel comfortable. Most importantly, they make sure the kids are safe and have fun.  Safety Town takes place around the second week of June. For more information, visit the Summer Programs Page.
