We Need You!!! Coyote
Hills Day Camp is run solely by volunteers! We need adults and experienced
Program Aides (Older Girls ages 11 – 17 that have completed Program Aide
Training) to join our Day Camp Staff. We must have at least one adult
volunteer for every six children (campers, Program Aides, Tags and Pixies)
attending camp. No prior experience needed, only the desire to work with
girls and other adults. You will build new friendships, have fun, and make
a difference in many girls’ lives!
