Volunteer and Make a Difference!As an Inclusive Paddling Volunteer, your main role is as a “paddle buddy,” providing support to participants on and off the water. This may include helping with boat set-up, entering/exiting the boat, providing encouragement, and being an extra set of eyes on the water for the lead coach.
We encourage responsible, caring, and enthusiastic people for this role, and we promise a good time! Below is a brief outline of the two big programs where volunteers are most needed. We ask for a minimum commitment of 1 night per week.
- PaddleALL program - Paddling program for individuals with developmental disabilities and special needs. The rec program runs Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:30 - 7:30 PM from July 3 to August 26. The competitive program runs M + W from 5:45 - 7:00 PM starting May 27th.
- Para Canoe Kayak program - Paddling program for individuals with physical disabilities. The program has two sessions which both run Thursdays from 5:00 - 6:15 PM and 6:45 - 8:00 PM running from June to August.
If you would like to volunteer with us this summer, please sign up on this page. If you are interested in volunteering with us outside the two programs listed above, please select "other.”
Volunteers must have confidence on the water, and we will follow up with additional training.
