Connecting Kids to Nature

At the Nature Center, we celebrate connecting kids to nature and the natural systems that bind us together.  Join us year-round for fun and learning!  Our offerings for kids include Outdoor Adventure Camps and Classes, school field trips, early childhood programs, Spring break camps, new eco-adventure trips, scout programs, and B'Earthday parties.  To get the latest on all our offerings for kids, click here

Volunteering

at the Nature Center

The opportunities to volunteer at the Nature Center are endless.  Want to share your knowledge about nature with kids?  Maybe a summer camp assistant position is for you.  Have a knack for graphic design? Maybe you would like to help us with our publications.  Whether it be helping out at one of our annual events or assisting us by bringing your own unique background and expertise to our day to day operations, there's always a need for volunteers.  We wouldn't be able to provide as many quality services as we do without the generousity of our many volunteers. 

Interested in learning more?   Fill out our online application or contact Brandon Henneman at henneman@shakerlakes.org or call (216) 321-5935 x 237 for more information.  We look forward to hearing from you!
