Teens, ages 12-17, who are interested in volunteering at EVPL for the summer should attend any ONE of these training sessions with a parent/guardian.
Starting May 1, 2022, interested teens will be able to fill out an application online or pick up a paper application at an EVPL location. There are a limited number of volunteer spots at each of our locations, and those will be filled in the order applications are received. Filling out and submitting an application does not guarantee a spot to volunteer at your preferred location. In addition to submitting an application, teens will need to attend any one of our training sessions in May or June. Teens may attend any of these training sessions with a parent/guardian, it does not need to be at their assigned volunteer location.Â
