Sunday July 2, 2006
On July 8, 2006, the Nashville Zoo will offer an open house for anyone interested in volunteer opportunities at the Zoo. The open house will be held at the Zoo’s Croft Center Gallery from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. on July 8.
Zoo Volunteers are integral components of Nashville Zoo.
They are dedicated individuals who provide much of the manpower needed for daily operations, programs, special projects, and events.
From fundraising to education to maintenance and assisting animal staff, hundreds of volunteers get involved at various levels that fit individual time and commitment abilities. The Nashville Zoo Volunteer Program is divided into five parts: Volunteer Corp (ages 18 and older), Docents (ages 18 and older), ZooTeens (ages 12-17), Interns (ages 16 and older) Family Teams and Group or Organizational Volunteers.
Anyone interested in participating is encouraged to bring a registration form which can be found on-line at :Volunteer Orientation Form
