Wilderness Mentor Volunteers Needed

Post by BigCityMountaineers » March 11th, 2017, 4:31 pm

Big City Mountaineers is looking for wilderness mentors to join our youth backpacking expeditions this summer. Being a BCM youth mentor is a challenging and rewarding opportunity. BCM volunteer mentors are the backbone of the Big City Mountaineers program. Adult mentors guide our youth through our core life skills curriculum to help them overcome challenges and illuminate the meaning of their accomplishments. Mentors help youth through understanding of core values and a progression of outdoor activity skills and leadership. This is a great opportunity for folks looking to expand their outdoor experience with youth.

If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity join us at REI or Planet Granite for an information session next week.
