Help the Woodlands Foundation with a number of special projects in preparation for Fall Fest, where the expected attendance is 300+ youth and families. This is a free event for the community where guests of all abilities will be able to participate in a pumpkin patch, a "Not so Haunted" trail, a costume contest, crafts for all ages, yard games, trick or treating, and more. Volunteers will be lending a huge hand in getting the Woodlands grounds ready for this special event for kids of all ages.
Waiver: All volunteers must complete the volunteer waiver upon registering - click here to access (opens in a new window).
What to Wear: Please wear comfortable, casual clothing that can get dirty. It is highly recommended that volunteers wear closed-toe shoes that they can easily move around in (sneakers or light boots, for example). Project is mostly outdoors - sun and/or rain protection is also suggested.
What to Bring: Refreshments and lunch will be provided, but a reusable water bottle may be handy. We also recommend bringing a light backpack or drawstring bag so you may work "hands-free" if you do not want to leave belongings in your car or on the property.
About The Woodlands Foundation: The Woodlands Foundation aims to enrich the lives of children and adults with disability and chronic illness.

Hands-on experiences guided by staff help to reinforce social, cultural, environmental, recreational and life skills growth. Participation is encouraged at every level, and celebrated in a welcoming and approachable group setting such as camps, retreats, clubs and events.
