A three week program to train volunteers for the Brevard Zoo's education department will begin on Saturday, January 13, 2001. Each of the six sessions will focus on a different aspect of zoo education. Graduates of the program will give educational tours of the zoo and assist the education department with special programs. Brevard Zoo volunteers require no special credentials or educational background, only a love of animals, a commitment of time and energy and a willingness to learn and teach. The commitment will include a short, intensive training program, plus 80 hours per year of volunteer work.
Volunteers select only programs with which they feel comfortable.
Pre-registration and a minimum age of 18 are required. 27 to register or for more information. For ages 3 and up. Call the Education Department for more information. For ages 5-12.
