    Description

    If a pre-teen in Traverse City is not interested in school sports, there are few safe options for recreation in the after-school hours. At the GT Bay YMCA, we offer games and activities for our Middle School members who walk over after their school day is over!

    After School Lead Volunteers (ASLV) work alongside staff to supervise our Middle School members between 2:45p and 5:00pm. Volunteers also support our youth volunteers, Middle School Mentors, in youth activities and engagement.

    We are looking for volunteers who enjoy youthful energy and want to help our middle schoolers have fun after school.

    Please reach out to Rachel R at rratliff@gtbayymca.org to learn more about this and other volunteer opportunities.

    Location
