Short on Time?
Would you love to help Chehaw but don’t have time to be a CEC volunteer? Why not become a Special Event volunteer? We have events year-round and always need volunteers to help make them successful. If you are interested, please contact Hollyn Cohen.
Junior Zookeepers Chehaw also has a program for those younger than 18 years of age that wish to volunteer. Junior Zookeepers are teen volunteers (13-17 years old) that are interested in volunteering in the summer as camp counselors, exhibit hosts, and education animal care volunteers. Spaces in the Junior Zookeeper program are limited. Applicants will be required to submit an application and participate in an interview. Those selected for the program will be required to attend training in May. If you are interested please e-mail your contact information to Jennifer Arledge. Information packets with all of the materials needed to apply will be mailed to you in April.
