We’re excited to welcome volunteers for a special training experience during our family event at Wanderwood Gardens! This YMCA Family Day on Thursday, June 11 (4:00–7:00 PM) will serve as a “beta test” as we prepare to open the gardens more broadly to the public.
Over 100+ invited YMCA families will be joining us to explore the gardens, engage in nature-based play, and help us learn what’s working well and where we can improve.
Volunteers will play a vital role in creating a welcoming, safe, and engaging environment for families. During this event, you will:
- Help orient and greet families as they arrive
- Model a warm, inclusive, and family-friendly atmosphere
- Assist with wayfinding, safety awareness, and general event flow
