Volunteers Needed for Ski Program
Beginning January 17, students will get to experience the joy of outdoor recreation in the Wood River Valley. Known as “ski week,” the program provides outdoor experiences to many students who would not otherwise learn how to ski, snowboard, snowshoe or ice skate. The program is organized by dedicated teachers and relies on volunteers and donations to ensure that every student has the opportunity to participate.
Each of the elementary schools needs volunteers. Volunteers can help as many days as they would like. Volunteers go through a simple and quick background check and attend a meeting at the school where they are volunteering. The rewards of volunteering are the endless smiles and enthusiasm of the students who get to experience the incredible outdoors of this beautiful place we call home.
