About
Holiday Wonders at the Garden is designed to give everyone in the family a chance to enjoy the winter weather and celebrate the holiday season with light displays and seasonal activities. There's always “snow” in My Big Backyard – even if Mother Nature didn't supply it – as well as interactive winter fun and games for families to enjoy.
Volunteers will help create a fun holiday environment, assist in running activities, help guests with photo opportunity spots, and other tasks as needed. Assignments will be given out the night of the event and are subject to change. Festive clothes are welcome- just be sure to dress warmly as this volunteer shift is outdoors!
This volunteer opportunity is perfect for people who enjoy the energy created around celebrating the holidays, are comfortable with either a slow or fast paced environment depending on the night, and are comfortable with small talk.
