Gardening/Horticulture Education Youth Programs - Arboretum Artists - Summer Camp

**Attention** 

Due to NJ State regulations on how summer camps are staffed/operated when working with minors, the MCPC will be adapting its policies on how Volunteers can assist with our summer camp programs at all sites. Volunteers will need to attend a mandatory training and submit to a background check (volunteers agree to this when acknowledging the Applicant Statement during the application process). Volunteers may request to assist with camps at this time, but will not be approved until training and background checks have been completed. Camp Volunteer Training to be posted at a later date.

(Description for this camp is listed below)

Frelinghuysen Arboretum's education staff is hosting a new summer youth camp for our creative community members and we are looking for creative volunteers to help us inspire, teach, and create. The volunteer assigned to the camp will be needed to help set up, tear down, and clean up each day and assist campers and staff throughout the daily activities. 

This program is available to attendees up to age 14. Volunteering opportunities are available to those aged 16 and up. 

Hours of this camp will be from 9 am to 12 pm from Monday, July 22nd through Friday, July 26th. Volunteers are asked to be available from 8:45 am to 12:15 pm each day to help set up and tear down. 

 

"Calling all creative kids! This is the camp for kids interested in art and nature. Using the gardens, plants, and flowers of The Frelinghuysen Arboretum for inspiration, young artists will explore different artistic styles, techniques, and media to create new pieces of art each day."
