Hi, I am a college student interested in volunteering. If we come in for the orientation, can we start right away? (I’m wondering because I live a considerable ways away
Hey Jan, Best thing to do is call Steve Martin and tell him your situation – 781 682 4878 x126. He is in part-time and always on weekends. Hope to see you soon.
Is the volunteer training happening this Saturday 6/16 from 12-2pm? I wanted to attend with my kids, but wanted to confirm before arranging our schedule. Also, do we just bring in our completed application?
Hi there, Yes, the volunteer orientation is the third Saturday of each month. You can call the front desk to make sure there is no unexpected cancellation, but as of now it is on. Thanks very much. See you then!

Hi Joe, We have a volunteer orientation on the third Saturday of every month at the Center – at 12:00 noon. Steve Martin will be your host and will explain the whole program. Anyone under the age of 17 does have to be accompanied by a parent or guardian when volunteering at the Center. We would love to have you. Hope to see you at the orientation.

Thank You!
Hi Caroline, There are two ways to volunteer – as a student intern or a ‘traditional’ volunteer. Please look at the internship application and summary, so you can determine which program you are interested in. Volunteer orientations are held on Saturdays. Please call the front desk to confirm the schedule for May. They will be posted on our calendar within the next few days too, as we update. If you are interested in an internship for this summer, please call Dr. Adamski to see if we are still accepting applications. Thanks so much for your interest in the Center. I look forward to meeting you! Best, Katrina

Hello. I am a student at umass amherst on a pre-vet track. I live in Ashland, MA and have worked in a dog and cat kennel for the past two years. At school I get daily hands-on experience with livestock animals. I would like to broadan my experience to include wildlife, something that fascinates me the most within the animal kingdom. I have heard off online sources that this wildlife center provides opportunities to intern. If this is true I am very interested in starting now over winter break. I understand this is not a paid internship but is also free of charge. I want to know more about the opportunity. What kind of schedule is to be followed? What kind of work would be done? Can I intern from home? I am currently filling out the volunteer form, but is there some kind of upcoming orientation I can attend or some kind of time that would be best suited for me to visit? I do live a little under an hour away and have a work schedule I need to follow so any information right now would be very helpful, however I can definitely find at least 4 hours a week, probably more, to come down. Please let me know. Thank you.
Hi Diane, I am so glad you came in today to inquiry about volunteering in person. Just fill out the application and bring it to the orientation. Thank you. Katrina
The Center gets volunteers of all ages throughout the week and weekend. We have a Grandmother/daughter team that comes in on Thursday afternoon and she is currently in middle school and a Father daughter team that comes in on Sundays, which she is also a high school student. The Center asks that all volunteers can commit to 4 hours a week, but if this is not feasible we will work with your schedule.
Come on down throughout the next few weeks, help carve some pumpkins and talk to other volunteers here about there experience.
Hi! Just wanted to confirm that you will have orientation this Saturday the 16th. Thanks and hope to see you then!

I’m a high school student interested in volunteering– what is the time commitment of a position? Is it manageable with a junior year schedule?
